Three-Month Construction Ahead on Hanover Street

POTTSTOWN PA – Utility construction work scheduled to begin Feb. 20 (2023; Monday) across parts of Pottstown and North Coventry is anticipated to create lane closures on Hanover Street that will continue through May 29, the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation said.

PECO Energy has received a PennDOT highway occupancy permit to complete the work weekdays, daily from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., on Hanover Street between King Street in Pottstown Borough and Route 724 in North Coventry Township. When closures are in effect, traffic will be detoured (above) over portions of King Street, Route 100, and Route 724, the agency said.

Because back-ups and delays can be expected, PennDOT advised drivers to allow extra time when traveling near the work area. All scheduled activities depend on acceptable weather, it added.
