CHESTER COUNTY, PA — The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced that roadway construction will continue next week under a $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.

The work schedule and location are:

  • Sunday, August 13, through Friday, August 18, from 7:00 PM to 6:00 AM the following morning, 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 paving operations.

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 is undertaking a safety improvement project on the U.S. 322 (West Chester Bypass) corridor. The project includes several improvements such as lane narrowing, acceleration lane extension, signal replacement, and bicycle accommodations. The goal is to enhance safety and efficiency for motorists and bicyclists along this important route.

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.
