Roadway Construction Alert: Prepare for Traffic Delays on U.S. 322 (West Chester Bypass) in Chester County

Lane closures

CHESTER COUNTY, PA — Roadway construction is expected to continue next week under the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation’s (PennDOT) $3.6 million project to improve travel and safety along a 2.87-mile section of U.S. 322 (West Chester Bypass) in East Bradford and West Goshen townships, Chester County.

On Monday, September 11, through Friday, September 15, from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM, periodic lane closures are scheduled on U.S. 322 (West Chester Bypass) in both directions between U.S. 322 (Downingtown Pike) and U.S. 202 for line striping.

Motorists are being advised to allow extra time when traveling through the work area because backups and delays will occur. All scheduled activities are weather dependent.

PennDOT is undertaking a safety improvement project on the U.S. 322 (West Chester Bypass) corridor. The project includes various measures like narrowing travel lanes, extending acceleration lanes, and installing safety features. Its goal is to enhance the safe and efficient movement of motorists and bicyclists throughout the corridor.

Allan Myers of Worcester, Montgomery County, is the general contractor on the project, which is financed with 100 percent federal funds. Construction on the project is expected to finish this winter.
