U.S. 202 North Lane and Ramp Closures at Night Next Week for Bridge
Construction in Chester County

5/17/2018-KING OF PRUSSIA

Northbound U.S. 202 will be reduced to a single lane approaching the U.S.
30/Exton Bypass Interchange, and two ramps at the interchange will be
closed at
night next week for bridge construction in East Whiteland and West
Whiteland
townships, Chester County, the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation
(PennDOT) announced today.

The schedule is:

• Sunday, May 20, through Thursday, May 24, from 8:00 PM to 5:00 AM the
following morning, northbound U.S. 202 will be reduced from
two-lanes-to-one
between the Boot Road and Route 401 interchanges;

• Sunday, May 20, through Thursday, May 24, from 8:00 PM to 5:00 AM the
following morning, the northbound U.S. 202 ramp to Business U.S. 30 will be

closed. Motorists normally using the ramp will be directed to exit at the
Route
401 Interchange and turn right onto Route 401 (Conestoga Road) to access
Business U.S. 30; and

• Sunday, May 20, through Thursday, May 24, from 8:00 PM to 5:00 AM the
following morning, the ramp from eastbound U.S. 30/Exton Bypass to
northbound
U.S. 202 will be closed. Motorists normally using the ramp will be directed
to
exit at Business U.S. 30, turn right onto Business U.S. 30 and immediately
right onto the ramp to U.S. 202 North.

These restrictions will allow the contractor to pour sections of the new
concrete deck for the outer half the U.S. 202 bridge over Amtrak at the
southern end of the interchange. All schedule activities are weather
permitting.

PennDOT completed repairs and redecking of the inside half of the
northbound
bridge in early February under the first major stage of a $26.4 million
project
to rehabilitate the northbound and southbound U.S. 202 bridges over Amtrak
and
the U.S. 30/Exton Bypass ramp, and replace the concrete pavement on the
ramps
to and from U.S. 202 and U.S. 30/Exton Bypass.

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