5/5/2017-KING OF PRUSSIA

Daytime and nighttime lane restrictions are scheduled next week on several
state highways as part of a $5.4 million project to repair and resurface 24

miles of state highway in Montgomery County, the Pennsylvania Department of

Transportation (PennDOT) announced today.

The work schedule is:

• Monday, May 8, through Friday, May 12, from 7:00 PM to 5:00 AM, lane

Road
and U.S. 1 (City Avenue) in Lower Merion Township, for paving;

and
Route 463 (Horsham Road) in Montgomery Township, for paving;
• Monday, May 8, through Friday, May 12, from 7:00 PM to 5:00 AM, lane
restrictions with flagging are scheduled on Route 663 (Layfield Road)
between
Hill Road and Knight Road in New Hanover and Upper Hanover townships, for
milling;
• Monday, May 8, through Friday, May 12, from 7:00 PM to 5:00 AM, lane
restrictions with flagging are scheduled on Bethlehem Pike between Route

and Pennsylvania Avenue in Lower Gwynedd Township, Ambler Borough and Upper

restrictions are scheduled on Route 29 (Main Street) between West 6th
Street
and West 2nd Street in East Greenville, Pennsburg and Red Hill boroughs,
for
line striping.

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:

• Route 663 (Layfield Road) between Knight Road and Route 29 (Main Street)
in
Upper Hanover Township and Pennsburg Borough;
• Route 29 (Bridge Street) between U.S. 422 and Tow Path Road in Upper
Providence Township;
• King Street between Route 100 (Pottstown Pike) and Manatawny Street in
Pottstown Borough; and
• Audubon Road between Pawlings Road and Route 363 (Trooper Road) in Lower
Providence Township.

Under this improvement project, PennDOT will mill 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.

Work on the project is expected to be completed in July 2017.

contractor on the $5,439,980 project, which is financed with 100 percent
