Wolf Administration Announces Work to Begin on $2 Million Project to
Resurface 13 Miles of State Highway in Chester County

5/24/2017-KING OF PRUSSIA

The Wolf Administration announced today that construction is scheduled to
begin
Friday on a $2 million project to repair and resurface 13 miles of state
highway in Chester County.

"Resurfacing projects like this are designed to improve the safety and
ride-ability of our highways," Governor Tom Wolf said. "This project will
provide a smoother and safer ride for those motorists who live, work and
visit
Chester County."

On Friday, May 26, from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM, lane restrictions are scheduled
on
Isabella Road between Chestnut Tree Road and Creek Road in West Nantmeal
Township, for paving.

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:

• North Wayne Avenue/Upper Gulph Road/Radnor Road between the Delaware
County
Line and the Montgomery County Line in Tredyffrin Township;
• Coldstream Road between Hares Hill Road and Kimberton Road in East
Pikeland
Township;
• Flowing Springs Road/Hollow Road between Birchrun Road Bridge and St.
Matthews Road in West Vincent Township;
• Hanover Street between Route 724 (Schuylkill Road) and the Schuylkill
River
in North Coventry Township;
• Marshall Street/Goshen Road/Phoenixville Pike between North High Street
and
Saunders Lane in West Chester Borough and West Goshen Township;
• South 13th Avenue/Oliver Street/Caln Road between Business U.S. 30 and
Business U.S. 30 in the City of Coatesville and Caln Township;
• Birdell Road between just south of Hill Road and U.S. 322 in Honey Brook
Township;
• Harmonyville Road/Laurelwood Road/Neiman Road between just west of Cherry

Hill Lane and South Hanover Street in North Coventry Township;
• Temple Road/Sheep Hill Road/Cedarville Road/Laurelwood Road between
Temple
Road and Route 724 (Schuylkill Road) in North Coventry Township;
• North Chestnut Street between Route 23 (Main Street) and the Berks County

Line in Elverson Borough; and
• Phoenixville Pike between Saunders Lane and Andrew Drive in West Goshen
Township.

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

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.

contractor
on the $2,077,777 project, which is financed with 100 percent state funds
