County Line Road Improvement Project Scheduled to Begin in Bucks and
Montgomery Co

12/1/2016-KING OF PRUSSIA

Construction is scheduled to begin Tuesday, December 13, on a $14.7 million

project to reconstruct, widen and improve 1.4 miles of County Line Road
between
Stump Road and Kulp Road in Warrington Township, Bucks County, and Horsham
and
Montgomery townships, Montgomery County.

This transportation improvement project will enhance travel on County Line
Road
by providing additional capacity for travelers by extending the existing
five-lane pattern to the intersection with Kulp Road.

On Tuesday, December 13, through mid-October 2017, Route 152 (Limekiln
Pike)
will be closed between County Line Road and Westminster Drive while
PennDOT's
contractor realigns the Route 152 (Limekiln Pike) intersections with Lower
State Road and County Line Road; constructs new turn lanes; and upgrades
existing traffic signals. Traffic will be detoured over Lower State Road
and
County Line Road. Local access will be maintained up to the construction
area.

PennDOT's contractor is widening County Line Road to accommodate two
11-foot
travel lanes in each direction, an 11-foot center turn lane, and two
five-foot
shoulders. This widened stretch of County Line Road will tie into the
recently
widened section at Stump Road, and will taper back to two lanes near Kulp
Road.

Additional improvements include the installation of four sound walls on
County
Line Road in the vicinity of the intersections at Kingston Way, Kenas Road,

Kulp Road and Route 152 (Limekiln Pike).

James D. Morrissey, Inc. of Philadelphia is the general contractor on the
$14,793,565 contract that is financed with 80 percent federal and 20
percent
state funds. Construction on the entire project is expected to finish in
September 2018.
