Route 29 (Morehall Road) Lane Restrictions Scheduled at Night Next Week for
Improvement Project in Chester County

3/1/2018-KING OF PRUSSIA

Nighttime lane restrictions are scheduled on southbound Route 29 (Morehall
Road) between Flat Road/Atwater Drive and Yellow Springs Road in East
Whiteland
and Charlestown townships, Chester County, on Tuesday, March 6, and
Wednesday,
March 7, from 7:00 PM to 5:00 AM, for line striping and temporary barrier
placement, the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT)
announced
today.

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

The work is part of an improvement project to reconstruct a portion of
Route 29
(Morehall Road) between the Pennsylvania Turnpike ramps and the
intersection of
North Atwater Drive/General Warren Boulevard to correct existing sinkhole
and
pavement subsidence issues. The project is scheduled to be completed in
fall
2018.

Under this improvement project, PennDOT is working to minimize future
sinkhole
problems by constructing geotechnical treatments and roadway drainage
improvements to prevent surface water infiltration and provide structural
support to the roadway.

Allan A. Myers, LP, of Worcester, Montgomery County, is the general
contractor
on the $2,592,555 project, which is financed with 100 percent state funds.
