Motorists will encounter weekday lane restrictions on Route 320 (Chester
Road)
at Avondale Road, and Yale Avenue at Fieldhouse Lane in Swarthmore Borough,

Delaware County, beginning Wednesday, February 28, from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM,
for
ADA curb ramp installations and various other pedestrian and bicycle
enhancements to improve safety, the Pennsylvania Department of
Transportation
(PennDOT) announced today. The weekday lane restrictions on both state
highways
will be in place through late April.

Motorists are advised to allow additional time when traveling through the

the project which is financed with 100 percent federal funds.
