U.S. 422 Closures, Lane Restrictions Next Week for Construction on Two Improvement Projects in Montgomery and Chester Counties

King of Prussia, PA – U.S. 422 motorists will encounter several travel restrictions next week at various locations in Montgomery and Chester counties for construction activities on two separate projects to reconstruct, rehabilitate and improve the expressway, the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced today.

Weather permitting, the work schedule is:

• Tuesday, June 25, and Wednesday, June 26, from 7:00 PM to 5:00 AM, a right lane closure will be in place on eastbound U.S. 422 between the Oaks and U.S. 202 interchanges;
• Tuesday, June 25, and Wednesday, June 26, from 7:00 PM to 5:00 AM the following morning, periodic 15-minute traffic stoppages will occur on eastbound U.S. 422 between the Route 363 (Trooper Road) and U.S. 202 interchanges;
• Tuesday, June 25, and Wednesday, June 26, from 9:00 PM to 6:00 AM the following morning, periodic 15-minute traffic stoppages will occur on westbound U.S. 422 between the U.S. 202 and Route 363 (Trooper Road) interchanges;
• Thursday, June 27, from 9:00 PM to 5:00 AM the following morning, westbound U.S. 422 will be closed and detoured between Route 100 (Pottstown Pike) and the split with Benjamin Franklin Highway. During the closure, westbound U.S. 422 motorists will exit at Route 100 and take High Street to Benjamin Franklin Highway to access westbound U.S. 422; and
• Friday, June 28, and Saturday, June 29, from 9:00 PM to 5:00 AM the following morning, eastbound U.S. 422 will be closed and detoured from the split with Benjamin Franklin Highway to Route 100 (Pottstown Pike). During the overnight closure, eastbound U.S. 422 motorists will be directed to continue on Benjamin Franklin Highway/High Street and turn right onto southbound Route 100 (Pottstown Pike) to access the ramp to eastbound U.S. 422.

Motorists are advised to allow extra time when traveling on U.S. 422 near the work areas because backups and delays will occur. In the event of weather, the operations will be postponed until the following night if needed.
