Kelly Drive Daytime and Nighttime Lane Closures Scheduled Next Week for
Resurfacing Operations in Philadelphia

5/30/2018-KING OF PRUSSIA

Daytime and nighttime lane closures are scheduled in both directions on
Kelly
Drive at the Gustine Lake Interchange from Lincoln Drive to just west of
the
Falls Bridge in Philadelphia, on Monday, June 4, through Friday, June 8,
from
9:30 AM to 3:30 PM and 6:30 PM to 6:30 AM, for milling and paving, the
Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced today.

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

PennDOT's contractor is repairing the road base, milling the existing
roadway
surface, and repaving Kelly Drive with an ultra-thin friction course
pavement.
The friction course is designed to improve traction and help channel storm
water off the roadway.

The work is part of a project to repair and resurface 3.5 miles of Kelly
Drive
between 25th Street and Hunting Park Avenue and the Kelly Drive ramp to
Ridge
Avenue. The project also included improvements to 22 curb ramps. This work
has
been completed.

Work on the entire project is expected to be completed in late June.

Tony DePaul and Son of Philadelphia, PA is the general contractor on the
$1,843,749 project which is financed with 100 percent federal funds.
