Snow Alert 1/31/21

This is a message from ReadyMontco

Please click here to acknowledge receipt of this message

The Borough has issued a Snow Alert effective 12:00 pm on Sunday, January 31, 2021.  The emergency will be in effect until further notice.  We will continue to monitor forecasts and should predictions change, the Borough will adjust the upcoming alert.  For citizens, a snow alert means that all vehicles parked on those streets where signage indicates no parking during a snow alert are required, by law, to be moved elsewhere in order to allow snow plowing of the road surface. Snow alert signage dictates which side of the street residents may not park on when an alert is declared. Residents may park in their driveways (if available), alternate side of their street or another street not marked "No Parking." It is not the policy of the Borough to direct any resident or citizen where to park (i.e. we do not require residents to park in alleys when a snow alert is declared), we can only instruct where parking is not permitted. These parking restrictions are put into place for the purpose of public safety as well as the efficiency of snow clearing on Borough streets; vehicles in violation are subject to ticketing and/or towing by the Lansdale Borough Police Department.  If you see a vehicle parked on a Snow Alert Route, please contact Lansdale Police at 215-368-1800.

For any other weather related emergency, please dial 9-1-1.

We would also like to remind residents and business owners that it is illegal to deposit snow removed from sidewalks or private property onto any Borough street. Ordinance 1172 - Section 302.3.3 prohibits the throwing or blowing of snow into the streets from sidewalk or properties. Violators are subject to fines.  To assist emergency personnel, specifically firefighters, please be sure to clear a three (3) foot clearance around all fire hydrants on your property.  

The Borough is planning for the snow event with crews out preparing known trouble spots and will remain on call until after the Snow Alert is lifted. Throughout the storm, crews will be clearing snow on all Borough roads which can take up to eight hours for one complete route. 

Should this storm feature ice which can collect on trees and wires along with windy conditions, Lansdale Electric asks that if you see any downed wires, please stay away and contact them immediately at 215-361-8371 with the location. Under no circumstance should residents attempt to lift, move or adjust electric wires.

It will be posted on the website and social media channels when the Snow Alert is lifted and residents can resume normal parking.

The Borough also asks citizens to be neighborly and check on elderly or vulnerable neighbors who may need assistance. Also be sure to keep house numbers visible so that emergency responders can find you in case of emergency. Working together to overcome the obstacles and adversity created by weather situations such as these creates a greater sense of community and kindness. We'll get through this together, just as we always do.

King of Prussia, PA – Construction is scheduled to begin on Monday, February 15, on a project to replace the culvert carrying Route 63 (Red Lion Road) over Huntingdon Valley Creek in Lower Moreland Township, Montgomery County, the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced today.

Due to the nature of construction, Route 63 (Red Lion Road) will be closed and detoured 24/7 between Philmont Avenue and Dale Road beginning Monday, February 15, through the completion of the project scheduled for mid-July.

During the closure, Route 63 (Red Lion Road) motorists will be directed to use Philmont Avenue and Pine Road. Local access will be maintained up to the construction zone. Trucks, which may not turn right from Philmont Avenue onto Pine Road, will be directed use Philmont Avenue, Byberry Road, and Pine Road.

PennDOT's contractor will replace the existing 92-year-old structure that is 14 feet long and 20 feet wide with a new wider precast concrete arch culvert that will be 14 feet long and 50 feet wide. The added width will improve traffic flow for the on average 13,082 vehicles that travel over the structure daily. Other improvements include storm water management, signalization, sidewalk and ADA curb ramp upgrades.

Work on this project will be 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.

Route 63 (Red Lion Road) culvert is one of five structures in Chester, Montgomery and Delaware counties that PennDOT is repairing under a $4,948,703 project.

Structures completed under this project include:

• Kaolin Road Bridge over the west branch of Red Clay Creek in Kennett Township, Chester County; and
• Concord Road over Green Creek in Concord Township, Delaware County.

The other structures included in this bridge replacement/rehabilitation project include the following:

• Mansion Road over the south branch of French Creek in Warwick Township, Chester County. Built in 1904, Mansion Road Bridge (Brower's Bridge) is listed with the National Register of Historic Places and a part of the Reading Furnace Historic District; and
  Route 320 (Trinity Lane) over Gulph Mills Creek in Upper Merion Township, Montgomery County. Built in 1789, the Trinity Lane Bridge is also listed with the National Register of Historic Places and noted as the fifth oldest bridge in the Unites States of America.

J.D. Eckman, Inc. of Atglen, Chester County, is the general contractor on this bridge improvement project that is financed with 100 percent state funds. Work on the entire project is expected to be completed in early fall 2021.

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

PennDOT - District 6 News

I-76 East to Close at Night Next Week, I-76 West to Close Next Weekend for Viaduct Repairs in Philadelphia

King of Prussia, PA – Eastbound and westbound single lane conditions and overnight and weekend closures will be in place next week on Interstate 76 between University Avenue and 30th Street in Center City Philadelphia for median barrier construction and viaduct repairs, the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced today.

The work next week and next weekend, weather permitting, will end the around-the-clock westbound lane closure that were in place since last September between University Avenue and 30th Street by Monday morning, February 8. However, overnight and weekend lane restrictions and closures will continue on I-76 until the viaduct rehabilitation project finishes this spring.

The eastbound off-ramp and westbound on-ramp at South Street, which remain closed for construction of a new I-76 median barrier, also will reopen by Monday morning, February 8.

Weather permitting, the I-76 restrictions and locations for next week are:

• Monday, February 1, through Thursday, February 4, eastbound I-76 will be reduced to one lane between 30th Street and University Avenue at 8:00 PM, then closed completely at 10:00 PM to 5:00 AM the following morning, for overhead viaduct repairs;
• Thursday, February 4, from 7:00 PM to 5:00 AM the following morning, a slow-moving single lane traffic pattern will be in place on eastbound or westbound I-76 between Montgomery Drive and Passyunk Avenue for maintenance of work zone signs;
• From 12:00 Noon Friday, February 5, to 5:00 AM Monday, February 8, eastbound I-76 will be reduced to one lane between 30th Street and University Avenue for removal of construction barrier and line striping. Eastbound on-ramps at Walnut Street and South Street also will be closed; and

Under this project, PennDOT's contractor will mill, overlay and rehabilitate the existing concrete pavement including 41 ramps; perform minor structural repairs to 15 of the 33 bridges located in the project limits; repair sections of median barrier; upgrade guide rail; install new pavement markings, delineators and rumble strips; repair and clean existing inlets and pipes; and replace damaged or missing traffic signs. The Pennsylvania Welcome Center just north of the Delaware state line also will be improved with concrete base repairs and new parking stripes, pavement markings and signs.

Allan A. Myers, Inc. of Worcester, Montgomery County is the general contractor on the $68.4 million project which is financed with 80 percent federal and 20 percent state funds. The entire project is expected to be completed in late 2023.
