An update has been published to District 6 News on the PennDOT website. Please see below for details.

PennDOT - District 6 News

PennDOT to Rehabilitate the Bridge Carrying Johnson Highway over Sawmill Run Creek in East Norriton Township, Montgomery County

​King of Prussia, PA – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced today that construction will begin Monday, May 13, to rehabilitate the bridge carrying Johnson Highway over a branch of Sawmill Run Creek in East Norriton Township, Montgomery County.

PennDOT's contractor will rehabilitate the bridge by removing the existing superstructure and installing a new bridge deck, barrier and sidewalk; performing scour rock and stream repair; and paving bridge approaches. 

Due to the nature of construction, Johnson Highway will be closed and detoured between Hills Drive and Rahway Avenue during the length of the rehabilitation project. Beginning Monday, May 13, through early October, Johnson Highway motorists will be directed to use U.S. 202 (DeKalb Pike), Germantown Pike, and Arch Road/New Hope Street. Local access will be maintained up to the construction zone.

Built in 1924, and reconstructed in 1966, the one-span bridge is 28 feet long and 55 feet wide. The structure carries an average of 9,096 vehicles a day.

The rehabilitation of the bridge carrying Johnson Highway over a branch of Sawmill Run Creek is part of PennDOT's $6.8 million project to rehabilitate six poor condition bridges in Bucks and Montgomery counties, three structurally-deficient culverts in Bucks County, and to stabilize a stream embankment at a bridge in Bucks County.

Loftus Construction, Inc. of Cinnaminson, N.J., is the general contractor on the project that is financed with 100 percent state funds through Act 89, Pennsylvania's transportation plan.

Wolf Administration Announces Project to Begin to Rehabilitate and Repair Five Miles of U.S. 422 in Montgomery County

King of Prussia, PA – The Wolf Administration announced today that construction will begin next week on a project to rehabilitate pavement and repair seven structures along a five-mile section of U.S. 422 between the Royersford/Trappe and Sanatoga interchanges in Limerick and Lower Pottsgrove townships, Montgomery County. 

"This project is critical to extending the service life of a major artery linking Montgomery and Chester counties," Governor Tom Wolf said. "Travel and safety will be greatly enhanced once a new riding surface is constructed and repairs are completed to several bridges along this key corridor."

Under this two-year improvement project, PennDOT's contractor will mill, overlay and rehabilitate existing U.S. 422 pavement; perform bridge deck repairs, concrete and joint patching, sealing and drainage improvements; install new guide rail and rumble strips; and repair or replace damaged traffic signs along the corridor.

On Monday, May 6, through Saturday, May 11, U.S. 422 motorists will encounter periodic daytime shoulder closures in both directions between Pleasant View Road and Township Line Road for installation of advanced warning equipment.  

Motorists are advised to allow extra time when traveling on U.S. 422 in the work area because backups and delays will occur. All scheduled activities are weather dependent.

H & K Group Inc. of Skippack, Montgomery County is the general contractor on the $17,874,021 project which is financed with 100 percent federal funds. The entire project is expected to be completed in summer 2021.

During the closure, motorists will be directed to use the ramp from westbound I-76 to 30th Street, then follow Schuylkill Avenue to the ramp to westbound I-76 at Market Street;
• Monday, April 29, through Thursday, May 2, from 9:00 PM to 11:00 PM, the ramp from westbound I-76 to 30th Street may close periodically. Motorists normally using this ramp will be directed to use westbound I-76 to the Montgomery Drive exit, left on Montgomery Drive, left on the ramp to eastbound I-76 to the Spring Garden Street exit, turn right on Spring Garden Street, then turn left on 38th Street back to Market Street; and
