Traffic, flagging

CHESTER COUNTY, PA — Roadway construction is expected to continue under a $3.6 million Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) 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 25, through Friday, September 29, 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 inlet adjustments.

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

PennDOT’s safety improvement project on the U.S. 322 (West Chester Bypass) corridor aims to enhance the safety and efficiency of motorists and bicyclists. The project includes lane narrowing, acceleration lane extensions, traffic signal replacements, shoulder construction for bicycles, installation of countermeasures, and more. Intersections such as North New Street, Route 100, Penn Drive, Phoenixville Pike, and U.S. 202 are part of this initiative.

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.
