U.S. 322 Daytime Lane Closures Next Week for Soil Boring in Upper Chichester Township

King of Prussia, PA — Daytime lane closures are scheduled next week on U.S. 322 (Conchester Highway) at the Bethel Avenue Interchange in Upper Chichester Township, Delaware County, for soil boring activities, the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced today.

Weather permitting, the work schedule and locations are:

• Monday, November 16, through Friday, November 20, from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM, alternating eastbound or westbound lane closures will be in place on U.S. 322 (Conchester Highway) between Interstate 95 and the Route 452/Market Street interchange; and
• Monday, November 16, through Friday, November 20, periodically from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM, the loop road between Bethel Avenue and U.S. 322 (Conchester Highway) at the Bethel Avenue Interchange will be reduced to a single lane with flaggers.

The soil borings are part of the design engineering activities underway for the upcoming U.S. 322 Section CSX project to replace the bridge over Bethel Avenue and CSX railroad and improve the adjacent interchange. Section CSX, which is scheduled to be under construction in late 2021, is one of four separate contracts that make up PennDOT's U.S. 322 (Conchester Highway) improvement project.

These operations will proceed in accordance with Centers for Disease Control and state Department of Health guidance as well as a project-specific COVID-19 safety plan, which will include protocols for social distancing, use of face coverings, personal and job-site cleaning protocols, management of entries to the jobsite, special signage and relevant training.

Motorists are advised to allow extra time for travel through the work area or to use an alternate route as backups may occur on U.S. 1 (Baltimore Pike), U.S. 322 (Conchester Highway), and on the ramps from I-95 to westbound U.S. 322 (Conchester Highway).
