CHESTER COUNTY, PA — Daytime lane closures are scheduled next week at the busy U.S. 202 and Route 926 intersection, as crews begin traffic signal construction aimed at improving safety and traffic flow.
At a Glance

- Dates: Monday, April 20 – Friday, April 24
- Times: 9:00 AM – 3:00 PM (weekdays)

PennDOT said lane closures with flagging will occur through the intersection in Thornbury and Westtown townships during daytime hours.
Drivers should plan extra time, expect delays, and consider alternate routes when traveling through this heavily used corridor.
The project includes installing a southbound right-turn deceleration lane on U.S. 202 and adding a second eastbound left-turn lane on Route 926 to create a double left-turn configuration.
Additional work includes signal upgrades, ADA curb ramp improvements, and milling and paving operations designed to improve safety and reduce crashes at the intersection.
Project planners will also monitor potential impacts to the nearby Westtown Inn, a historic property located at the intersection.
