Weeknight Lane Restrictions Scheduled for Resurfacing Operations in
Montgomery County

5/6/2018-KING OF PRUSSIA

Weeknight lane restrictions are scheduled on Manatawny Street between
Spring
Street and Upland Street in Pottstown Borough and West Pottsgrove Township,
on
Monday, May 7, through Friday, May 18, from 7:00 PM to 5:00 AM, for milling
and
paving operations as part of an improvement project to repair and resurface
20
miles of state highway in Montgomery County, the Pennsylvania Department of

Transportation (PennDOT) announced today.

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

State highways completed under this resurfacing project include:

• Route 113 (Third Avenue/Rahns Road) between Boro Line Road and Route 29
(Gravel Pike) in Trappe Borough and Perkiomen Township;
• Route 63 (Welsh Road/Moreland Road) between Fitzwatertown Road and Edge
Hill
Road in Abington and Upper Moreland townships;
• Sandy Hill Road from Fairfield Road to just east of Rolling Hill Drive in

Plymouth Township;
• Route 113 (Harleysville Pike/Main Street) between Godshall Road and East
Broad Street/West Broad Street in Franconia Township and Souderton Borough;
• Broad Street between Route 63 (Main Street) and Route 309 (Bethlehem
Pike) in
Lansdale Borough and Hatfield Township;
• Troxel Road/Orvilla Road between Sumneytown Pike and Route 63 (Welsh
Road) in
Towamencin Township; and
• Miller Road/Swamp Creek Road between Whites Mill Road/Swamp Creek Road
and
Upper Ridge Road in Marlborough Township.

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.

project, which is financed with 100 percent state funds from Act 89,
Pennsylvania's Transportation Plan.
