Three U.S. Route 422 Lane Closures Scheduled This Week

KING OF PRUSSIA PA – Construction activities, planned during the current week on U.S. Route 422, will require three separate highway lane closures in Lower Pottsgrove Township.

Drivers should be aware, the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) said, of the following scheduled traffic restrictions:

  • Monday through Thursday (July 8-11) from 4 a.m. to 2 p.m., a lane closure will be in place on westbound 422 between its Oaks and Sanatoga interchanges;
  • Monday through Friday (July 8-12) from 6 a.m. to 2 p.m., a lane closure will be in place on westbound 422 between Evergreen Road and Armand Hammer Boulevard; and
  • Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., a lane closure will be in place on eastbound 422 between Keim Street and Evergreen Road.

Drivers should allow extra time when traveling through the work areas, PennDOT added. It expects backups and delays will occur. All scheduled activities depend on acceptable weather.

The closures are necessary, PennDOT reported, as part of its $83.6 million project to reconstruct and improve 2.1 miles of the expressway. It includes bridge replacements between the Sanatoga interchange and Porter Road.

Three U.S. Route 422 Lane Closures Scheduled This Week

WASHINGTON TOWNSHIP PA – Pennsylvania highway maintenance work is planned in Washington Township, Berks County, this Monday through Friday (July 8-12, 2024).

Lane closures can be expected on both sides of Route 100 between Mill and Chestnut streets in the township, the state Department of Transportation said. Specifics of the work and reasons for the closures, which will occur daily from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m., were not reported.

PennDOT added that inclement weather could affect the work schedule. It urged drivers to “expect delays” and “use caution driving through the work zone.”

Drivers “can check conditions on major roadways by visiting the 511PA website,” PennDOT added. 511PA “is free and available 24 hours a day,” according to the state. It “provides traffic delay warnings, weather forecasts, traffic speed information, and access to more than 1,000 traffic cameras.”
