Clarissa Street for Resurfacing in Philadelphia

8/17/2017-KING OF PRUSSIA

Daytime and nighttime lane restrictions are scheduled on two state highways
for
milling and paving operations as part of a project to repair and resurface
26
miles of state highway in Philadelphia, the Pennsylvania Department of
Transportation (PennDOT) announced today.

The work schedule is:

• Monday, August 21, through Friday, August 25, from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM and

7:00 PM to 6:00 AM, lane restrictions are scheduled on Wayne Avenue between

Clarissa Street and Washington Lane; and
• Monday, August 21, through Friday, August 25, from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM and

7:00 PM to 6:00 AM, lane restrictions are scheduled on Clarissa Street
between
U.S. 13 (Hunting Park Avenue) and Wayne Avenue.

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

zones 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:

• Parkside Avenue between North 52nd Street and U.S. 30 (West Girard
Avenue);
and
• Princeton Avenue between U.S. 13 (Frankford Avenue) and State Road.

State highways completed under this resurfacing project include:

• Bethlehem Pike between Germantown Avenue and Stenton Avenue;
• Girard Avenue between Lancaster Avenue and 34th Street;
• Willits Road between Academy Road and Ashton Road;
• Cheltenham Avenue between Route 611 (Old York Road) and Tookany Creek
Parkway/Crescentville Road;
• Mt. Airy Avenue/Easton Road/Wadsworth Avenue between Germantown Avenue
and
Cheltenham Avenue;
• Stenton Avenue between Ivy Hill Road and Phil Ellena Street;
• Stenton Avenue/Godfrey Avenue from Wister Street to just east of Front
Street;
• Henry Avenue between U.S. 13 (Hunting Park Avenue) and Walnut Lane;
• Spring Garden Street between 39th Street/Lancaster Avenue and the
Benjamin
Franklin Parkway;
• Chester Avenue between U.S. 13 (Baltimore Avenue) and 52nd Street;
• Kingsessing Avenue between 52nd Street and 65th Street;
• 65th Street between Kingsessing Avenue and Cobbs Creek Parkway; and
• Whitby Avenue between South 52nd Street and Cobbs Creek Parkway.

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

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

Tony DePaul and Son of Philadelphia, PA is the general contractor on the
$8,889,694 project which is financed with 100 percent state funds from Act
89,
Pennsylvania's Transportation Plan.
