RIDLEY TOWNSHIP, PA — Line striping is scheduled on northbound Interstate 476 at the MacDade Boulevard Interchange in Ridley Township, Delaware County, under a Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) project to improve travel and safety on MacDade Boulevard and at the northbound I-476 and MacDade Boulevard Interchange.
On Monday, September 18, through Friday, September 22, from 8:00 PM to 5:00 AM the following morning, alternating lane closures are scheduled on northbound I-476 at the MacDade Boulevard Interchange.
Motorists are advised to allow extra time when traveling near the work area because backups and delays will occur. All scheduled activities are weather dependent.
PennDOT’s contractor will make several improvements to the MacDade Boulevard intersection including a left turn lane, updated traffic signals, modernized curb ramps, and the installation of message boards and CCTV cameras. Additionally, the project involves widening and realigning the ramp from northbound I-476 and constructing auxiliary lanes to relieve traffic congestion. A new pedestrian bridge will also be reconstructed.
Allan Myers, LP, of Worcester, Montgomery County, is the general contractor on the $16.2 million project, which is financed with 80% federal funds and 20% state funds. The entire project is scheduled to finish in summer 2026.
