6/8/2017-KING OF PRUSSIA

Weekday lane restrictions are scheduled on Route 63 (Welsh Road/Moreland
Road)
between Village Road/Jarrettown Road and Willow Brook Drive/Edge Hill Road
in
Horsham, Upper Dublin, Abington and Upper Moreland townships, beginning
Tuesday, June 13, from 7:00 PM to 5:00 AM, for milling and paving as part
of a
$4.5 million project to repair and resurface 20 miles of state highway in
Montgomery County, the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT)
announced today. The weekday lane restriction will be in effect through
Friday,
July 28.

Motorists are advised to allow extra time when traveling through this work
zone
because slowdowns will occur during construction. The contractor's schedule
is
dependent on the weather.

Additional state highways scheduled for resurfacing under this contract
include:

• Broad Street between Route 63 (Main Street) and Route 309 (Bethlehem
Pike) in
Lansdale Borough and Hatfield Township;
• Troxel Road/Orvilla Road between Sumneytown Pike and Route 63 (Welsh
Road) in
Towamencin Township;
• Route 113 (Third Avenue/Rahns Road) between Boro Line Road and Route 29
(Gravel Pike) in Trappe Borough and Perkiomen Township;
• Route 113 (Harleysville Pike/Main Street) between Route 63 (Sumneytown
Pike)
and East Broad Street/West Broad Street in Souderton Borough, Franconia and

Lower Salford townships; and
• Sandy Hill Road from Fairfield Road to just east of Rolling Hill Drive in

Plymouth Township.

State highways completed under this resurfacing project include:

• Miller Road/Swamp Creek Road between Whites Mill Road/Swamp Creek Road
and
Upper Ridge Road in Marlborough 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.
