Nighttime Lane Restrictions Scheduled Next Week for Resurfacing Operations
in Chester County

10/13/2017-KING OF PRUSSIA

Nighttime lane restrictions are scheduled next week on a pair of state
highways
as part of an improvement project to repair and resurface 19 miles of state

highway in Chester County, the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation
(PennDOT) announced today.

The work schedule is:

• Sunday, October 15, through Wednesday, October 18, from 6:00 PM to 6:00
AM,
lane restrictions are scheduled on Birmingham Road between Old Wilmington
Pike
and Route 52 (Lenape Road) in Birmingham and East Bradford townships, for
paving; and
• Monday, October 16, from 6:00 PM to 6:00 AM, lane restrictions are
scheduled
on Kaolin Road between Ewart Road and the bridge over Red Clay Creek in New

Garden and Kennett townships, for paving.

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

Additional state highway scheduled for resurfacing under this contract
include:

• Westtown Thornton Road from the Delaware County line to Route 926 (Street

Road) in Thornbury Township.

State highways completed under this resurfacing project include:

• High Street between U.S. 202 and Route 52 (Price Street) in West Chester
Borough and West Goshen Township;
• Route 926 (Street Road) between U.S. 202 and Cheyney Road in Westtown and

Thornbury townships;
• Red Lion Road from just south of Lenape Unionville Road to Marlborough
Road
in Pocopson Township;
• Route 842 (Unionville Wawaset Road) between Route 82 (Doe Run Road) and
Bridge Road in Pocopson, Newlin and East Marlborough townships;
• Lenape Unionville Road from just west of Red Lion Road to just west of
Route
52 (Lenape Road) in Pocopson Township; and
• Fernhill Road between Phoenixville Pike and Paoli Pike in West Goshen
Township.

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 mid-November.

Allan A. Myers, LP, of Worcester, Montgomery County, is the general
contractor
on the $3,785,100 project, which is financed with 100 percent state funds.
