Weekday lane restrictions are scheduled next week on a pair of state

as part of an improvement project to repair and resurface 26 miles of state

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

The work schedule is:

• Monday, March 26, through Thursday, March 29, from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM,
lane
restrictions are scheduled on Valley Forge Road between Route 252 (Valley
Forge
Road) and the Montgomery County line in Tredyffrin Township, for milling;
and
• Monday, March 26, through Thursday, March 29, from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM,
lane
restrictions are scheduled on Worthington Road from Newcomen Road to the
Uwchlan Township line in West Pikeland Township, for milling.

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

weather.

Additional state highways scheduled for resurfacing under this contract
include:

• Route 41 (Gap Newport Pike) from the Delaware state line to U.S. 1 in
Avondale Borough and New Garden and London Grove townships;
• Route 340 (West Kings Highway) between Route 10 (Compass Road) and
Business
U.S. 30, in West Caln, West Brandywine, Caln and Valley townships;

• Main Street/Green Street/Swan Road/Upper Valley Road from Route 372 (Main

Street) to the Atglen Borough line; and
• Wagontown Road between Lyons Head Drive and Hatfield Road in West Caln
and
West Brandywine townships.

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.

contractor
on the $6,262,777 project, which is financed with 100 percent state funds
from
Act 89, Pennsylvania's Transportation Plan.

Work on the entire project is expected to be completed in summer 2018.
