Under this improvement project, a new traffic pattern will be implemented next week to allow for through traffic for motorists traveling northbound on Route 896 (Newark Road) and southbound on Route 796 (Jennersville Road) at that intersection. The southbound Route 896 (Newark Road) approach will be realigned using pavement markings to improve sight distance for motorists who will continue to use the stop sign at the intersection.

Allan Myers, LP of Worcester, Montgomery County, is the general contractor on this $10.8 million resurfacing project, which is financed with 100 percent state funds.
