Route 63, Main Street Restricted Next Week for Traffic Signal Installations in Montgomery County

​King of Prussia, PA –  Motorists will encounter single lane closures on Route 63 (Main Street/Welsh Road) and Main Street on Monday, November 5, through Friday, November 9, from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM, for traffic signal installations in Montgomery County, the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced today.

The work schedule includes:

  • Route 63 (Main Street/Welsh Road) between Wales Road/Walnut Street and U.S. 202 in Lansdale Borough; and
  • Main Street between 4th Street and 5th Street in Royersford Borough.

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

Work under this improvement project is part of PennDOT's 'Green Light-Go' initiative, Pennsylvania's Municipal Signal Partnership Program designed to improve the efficiency and operation of existing traffic signals located in Pennsylvania.

The scope of work on this project includes the installation of fiber optic cables, and upgrading traffic signals at varying intersections.

Wampole – Miller of Conshohocken, Montgomery County is the general contractor on the $1,558,716 improvement project which is financed with 50 percent state and 50 percent local funds. Construction on this improvement project is expected to be completed in summer 2019.
