CHESTER COUNTY, PA — Roadway construction is expected to continue next week under a $3.6 million Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) project to improve travel and safety along a 2.87-mile section of U.S. 322 (West Chester Bypass) in East Bradford and West Goshen townships, Chester County.
On Monday, November 6, through Friday, November 10, from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM, periodic lane closures are scheduled on U.S. 322 (West Chester Bypass) in both directions between U.S. 322 (Downingtown Pike) and U.S. 202 for guide rail construction.
Motorists are advised advised to allow extra time when traveling through the work area because backups and delays will occur. All scheduled activities are weather dependent.
PennDOT’s safety improvement project includes various enhancements like lane narrowing, acceleration lane extension, traffic signal replacement, bicycle shoulder construction, center line rumble strips installation, guide rail replacement, and wrong way countermeasures installation. The project spans from the intersection of U.S. 322 and Downingtown Pike to the intersection of U.S. 322 and U.S. 202, encompassing multiple intersections such as North New Street, Route 100, Penn Drive, Phoenixville Pike, and U.S. 202.
The project aims to improve the safe and efficient movement of motorists and bicyclists on the U.S. 322 (West Chester Bypass) corridor.
Allan Myers of Worcester, Montgomery County, is the general contractor on the project, which is financed with 100 percent federal funds. Construction on the project is expected to finish this winter.
