PennDOT crews return to U.S. Route 422 in parts of Limerick and Lower Pottsgrove townships next week. They'll work weekdays from 5 a.m. to 2 p.m. on asphalt sealing and installing signs.
Installation of a culvert on Ashenfelter Road, at about its mid-point between Black Rock and Troutman Road, will result in temporarily closing the highway for between one and two months, police said.
