LOWER POTTSGROVE TWP, PA — The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) has announced that construction activities will continue next week on U.S. 422. The project aims to reconstruct and improve approximately 2.1 miles of the expressway and replace bridges between the Sanatoga Interchange and Porter Road in Lower Pottsgrove Township, Montgomery County.
From Monday, August 5, through Friday, August 9, intermittent single lane closures will be in place on westbound U.S. 422 between Evergreen Road and Armand Hammer Boulevard from 4:00 AM to 2:00 PM. Similarly, eastbound U.S. 422 between Keim Street and Evergreen Road will experience intermittent single lane closures from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM.
Motorists should expect delays and are advised to allow extra time when traveling through these areas. All scheduled activities are weather dependent.
The Section M1B project will reconstruct U.S. 422 on both existing and revised alignments. These changes aim to improve horizontal curve radii, shoulder widths, and vertical clearance, thereby enhancing travel safety. The project includes the removal and replacement of a culvert at Sprogels Run, located just east of Porter Road, and an existing single-span bridge carrying U.S. 422 over Porter Road. A new two-span bridge will replace the old structure. Additionally, the bridge carrying U.S. 422 over Sanatoga Road and Sanatoga Creek will be reconstructed and widened.
