Weekday Lane Restrictions on Lower State Road Scheduled Next Week for
Resurfacing Operations in Montgomery Township

8/25/2017-KING OF PRUSSIA

Weekday lane restrictions with flagging are scheduled on Lower State Road
between County Line Road and Route 152 (Limekiln Pike) in Montgomery
Township
on Tuesday, August 29, through Thursday, August 31, from 9:00 AM to 3:00
PM,
for milling and paving operations as part of a major improvement project to

reconstruct, widen and improve 1.4 miles of County Line Road between Stump
Road
and Kulp Road in Warrington Township, Bucks County, and Horsham and
Montgomery
townships, Montgomery County, the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation

(PennDOT) announced today.

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

PennDOT's contractor is widening County Line Road to accommodate two
11-foot
travel lanes in each direction, an 11-foot center turn lane, and two
five-foot
shoulders. This widened stretch of County Line Road will tie into the
recently
widened section at Stump Road, and will taper back to two lanes near Kulp
Road.

Additional improvements include the installation of four sound walls on
County
Line Road in the vicinity of the intersections at Kingston Way, Kenas Road,

Kulp Road and Route 152 (Limekiln Pike).

James D. Morrissey, Inc. of Philadelphia is the general contractor on the
$14,793,565 contract that is financed with 80 percent federal and 20
percent
state funds. Construction on the entire project is expected to finish in
September 2018.
