U.S. 202 South Nighttime Restrictions Next Week for Overhead Sign
Construction in Chester County

12/1/2017-KING OF PRUSSIA

Lane restrictions will be in place next Thursday and Friday nights on
southbound U.S. 202 for installation of an overhead sign between the Route
401
and U.S. 30/Exton Bypass interchanges in East Whiteland Township, Chester
County, the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced
today.

The southbound right lane will be closed from 8:00 PM Thursday, December 7,

until 5:00 AM Friday, December 8, and 8:00 PM Friday, December 8, to 10:00
AM
Saturday, December 9.

Motorists are advised to allow extra time when traveling through the work
area
because backups and delays will occur. All scheduled activities are weather

dependent.

The work is part of a $26.4 million project to rehabilitate the northbound
and
southbound U.S. 202 bridges over Amtrak and the adjacent U.S. 30 ramp, and
to
remove and replace deteriorated concrete pavement on the U.S. 202 ramps to
and
from the U.S. 30/Exton Bypass.

The current work is the final phase of PennDOT's almost $300 million U.S.
202
Section 300 improvement project that, since initial construction began in
2008,
has widened and rebuilt 6.5 miles of the Chester County Expressway between
the
Swedesford Road/Route 252 Interchange in Tredyffrin Township, and the U.S.
30/Exton Bypass Interchange in East Whiteland Township.

Allan A. Myers, Inc. of Worcester, Montgomery County, is the general
contractor
on the project which is financed with 100 percent federal funds.
