PennDOT announces US 422 construction to begin Sunday in Lower Providence

The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation announced Thursday that construction will occur next week on U.S. 422 under two improvement projects in Montgomery County.

Motorists are advised of the following travel restrictions:

• Sunday, June 9, through Thursday, June 13, from 7:00 PM to 5:00 AM the following morning, a single lane closure will be in place on eastbound U.S. 422 between the Phoenixville/Collegeville (Route 29) and Bridgeport/Valley Forge (Route 23) interchanges  in Upper Providence and Lower Providence townships for sawcutting and concrete patching.
• Monday, June 10, through Friday, June 14, from 5:00 AM to 2:00 PM, a lane closure will be in place periodically on westbound U.S. 422 between Evergreen Road and Armand Hammer Boulevard  in Lower Pottsgrove Township for shoulder reconstruction.
• Monday, June 10, through Friday, June 14, from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, a lane closure will be in place periodically on eastbound U.S. 422 between Keim Street and Evergreen Road  in Lower Pottsgrove Township for roadway reconstruction.

Motorists are advised to allow extra time when traveling through the work areas because backups and delays will occur. All scheduled activities are weather dependent.

The concrete patching is part of a $6.9 million project to rehabilitate pavement on eastbound U.S. 422 between the Route 29/Phoenixville and Route 363/Trooper Road interchanges.

The shoulder and roadway reconstruction are part of an $83.6 million project to reconstruct and improve U.S. 422 and replace two bridges between the Sanatoga Interchange and Porter Road.
