Although a PennDOT crew happened to be working Monday on North Sanatoga Road, several other area state-owned highways also are receiving routine maintenance in advance of rainstorms anticipated this summer.
Transportation
PennDOT contractor H&K Group of Skippack will alternate left- and right-lane closures, and occasionally road shoulders too, next week on U.S. Route 422 between Township Line and Evergreen roads.
Drivers face stiffer penalties for dumping trash in litter enforcement corridors: designated sections of roads with high scenic or historic value. State agencies and beautification advocates promoted them Thursday.
Shovels were filled and dirt ceremoniously thrown in ground-breaking for the new westbound U.S. Route 422 on-ramp at Sanatoga. An equally celebratory completion event is anticipated in November.
Asphalt sealing and pipe replacement work on sections of U.S. Route 422 across Lower Pottsgrove and Limerick townships will prompt lane closures next week.
Drivers on U.S. Route 422 between the Armand Hammer Boulevard and Sanatoga interchanges took photos Thursday of flash flooding on a portion of the highway. More limited, scattered storms are possible Friday, the National Weather Service said.
Three separate lane closures are scheduled to begin Sunday and Monday on both sides of U.S. Route 422 in Lower Pottsgrove and Limerick. Of them, two are expected to continue through the first week of July.
On Tuesday - the day after Memorial Day, as predicted - work began at the U.S. Route 422 interchange at Sanatoga to build a new, traffic-easing westbound entrance ramp from Evergreen Road.
