NEW TRAFFIC SIGNALS OPERATING AT INTERSECTION – A series of new traffic control signals, promised in December (2010) by the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation to better regulate vehicular movement at the intersection of Industrial Highway and Moser Road on the west edge of Lower Pottsgrove (PA) Township, have now been installed. PennDOT told the township and the Borough of Pottstown it deemed the signals (seen, above, from Industrial Highway looking west; and below, from Moser Road looking north) were necessary due to increased traffic from detours created by the October 2010 closing of the South Keim Street bridge. The deteriorated bridge, which crosses the Schuylkill River, is less than a mile west of the intersection. The two municipalities are sharing the cost, reported to be about $30 a month, to provide electricity for the signals.
