Nighttime Lane Restrictions Scheduled Next Week on Two State Highways for
Resurfacing in Delaware County

4/21/2017-KING OF PRUSSIA

Nighttime lane restrictions are scheduled next week on Ridley Creek Road in

Upper Providence Township and Westtown Road in Thornbury Township, for
milling
and paving as part of a $2.6 million project to repair and resurface 10
miles
of state highway in Delaware County, the Pennsylvania Department of
Transportation (PennDOT) announced today.

The work schedule is:

• Monday, April 24, through Thursday, May 4, from 6:00 PM to 6:00 AM, lane
restrictions are scheduled on Ridley Creek Road between Bishop Hollow
Road/Barren Road and U.S. 1 (Baltimore Pike); and
• Tuesday, April 25, through Thursday, May 4, from 6:00 PM to 6:00 AM, lane

restrictions are scheduled on Westtown Road from South Concord
Road/Westtown
Road to just north of Meadowcroft Road.

All traffic will be controlled by flagging. During these operations, there
will
be no lane restrictions scheduled on Saturdays.

Motorists are advised to allow extra time when traveling through these work

zones because slowdowns will occur. The contractor's schedule is dependent
on
the weather.

The additional state highways scheduled for resurfacing under this contract

include:

• Eagle Road/Glendale Road between Springfield Road and Route 3 (West
Chester
Pike) in Springfield, Haverford and Marple townships;
• Wayne Avenue from Conestoga Road to just north of Woodsworth Court in
Radnor
Township;
• Springfield Road between MacDade Boulevard and Netherwood Drive in Aldan,

Clifton Heights and Collingdale boroughs, and Springfield and Upper Darby
townships; and
• Amosland Road/Holmes Road between U.S. 13 (Chester Pike) and MacDade
Boulevard in Norwood Borough and Ridley Township.

All work on the project is expected to be completed in late October.

Under this improvement project, PennDOT will mill off the existing roadway
surface and repave the state highways with new asphalt. The new pavement
will
seal the roadways and provide motorists with a smoother riding surface.

Highway Materials, Inc. of Flourtown, Montgomery County, is the general
contractor on the $2,570,904 project, which is financed with 100 percent
state
funds from Act 89, Pennsylvania's Transportation Plan.
