PennDOT to Host Open House Public Meeting for Paoli Transportation Center
Roadway Improvement Project

3/1/2017-KING OF PRUSSIA

The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) will hold an open
house
public meeting on Monday, March 6, from 6:00 PM to 9:00 PM, to inform
citizens
about the upcoming project to replace the bridge carrying North Valley Road

over Amtrak and SEPTA rail tracks in Tredyffrin Township, Chester County.

The public meeting will be held at the Tredyffrin Township Building, which
is
located at 1100 Duportail Road, Berwyn. The meeting will feature an open
house
plans display where citizens will have the opportunity to circulate among
the
various subject displays to gather information and discuss the different
facets
of the project with PennDOT's project team.

PennDOT plans to replace the existing bridge over Amtrak and SEPTA with a
new
bridge over the railroad and new roadway extension from the intersection of

U.S. 30 (Lancaster Avenue) and Darby Road. The new roadway and bridge are
being
developed as one element of the Paoli Intermodal Transportation Center,
which
will upgrade Chester County's most utilized train station. The station
currently serves Amtrak, SEPTA's Paoli/Thorndale Regional Rail Line, as
well as
various bus routes.

The project also calls for improvements at the intersections of East
Central
Avenue and West Central Avenue with North Valley Road, improvements to the
existing parking areas for the train station, new access roadways under the

North Darby Road extension for a future parking garage, traffic signal
improvements at the intersection of North Valley Road at U.S. 30
(Lancaster
Avenue) and Darby Road at U.S. 30 (Lancaster Avenue), removal of the
existing
North Valley Road Bridge and improvements of North Valley Road between U.S.
30
(Lancaster Avenue) and the railroad.
