Route 113 (Harleysville Pike) Lane Closures Scheduled Weekdays for Construction in Lower Salford Township

King of Prussia, PA – Weekday lane restrictions with flagging are scheduled on Route 113 (Harleysville Pike) between Sharon Lane and Old Morris Road in Lower Salford Township, Montgomery County, on Monday, May 6, through Friday, May 31, from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM, for various construction activities under a project to replace three bridges carrying Route 63 (Sumneytown Pike) over Unami Creek, Ridge Valley Creek and the East Branch of Perkiomen Creek in Upper Salford, Lower Salford and Marlborough townships, Montgomery County, the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced today. If necessary, the contractor will work Saturdays and Sundays from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM to complete the operations.

Drivers are advised to allow extra time when traveling through the work area because backups and delays may occur. All scheduled activities are weather dependent and subject to change.

Under this improvement project, Route 63 (Sumneytown Pike) is expected to be closed and detoured later this spring through November for the construction of new bridges over Unami Creek and Ridge Valley Creek. Work is planned on both bridges simultaneously to minimize traffic impacts.

The Route 63 (Sumneytown Pike) bridge over the East Branch of the Perkiomen Creek will remain open during construction as the bridge will be built in stages using half-width construction. This work is expected to begin this spring and finish in spring 2020.

H & K Group, Inc., of Skippack, PA is the general contractor on the $9,565,527 project which is financed with 80 percent federal and 20 percent state funds. The entire project is expected to be completed in spring of 2021.
