Expect Repaving, High Street Lane Closures Aug. 20-25

Repaving, High St. Lane Closures Persist Through Friday

August 19, 2023

POTTSTOWN PA – Milling, repaving, and utility adjustment projects this week on portions of High Street across Pottstown and Lower and West Pottsgrove townships are resulting in several lane closures, the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation said.

  • A lane closure Sunday (Aug. 20) from 5 p.m. to 5 a.m. the following morning, on High Street between Pleasant View Road and Roland Street, in Pottstown Borough and West Pottsgrove Township;
  • A lane closure Monday through Friday (Aug. 21-25) from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. and 7 p.m. to 5 a.m. the following morning, on High Street between Manatawny Street and the Berks County line in Pottstown Borough and Lower Pottsgrove Township; and
