• ROUTE 491 RESTRICTED BETWEEN US 202 AND DE BORDER |
|
|
King of Prussia – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) today announced that daytime lane restrictions are scheduled on Route 491 (Naamans Creek Road) between Route 202 and the Delaware state line in Concord, Bethel, Upper Chichester, and Lower Chichester townships, Delaware County, on Monday through Friday (April 12-16) from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. for tree clearing and utility relocation.
The work is being done in advance of PennDOT’s $9.8 million project to reconstruct, mill and pave Route 491 between the Delaware state line and Route 202, a distance of 5.5 miles. The project also calls for drainage, signing, pavement marking, driveway, sight distance, and turn radius improvements. Roadway shoulders will also be stabilized.
PennDOT’s improvement project will be completed in two phases with separate detours. Under phase one, Route 491 through traffic will be detoured over Route 261, Delaware Route 92 (Naamans Road), and Route 202. During phase two, traffic will be detoured over Route 261 and Delaware Route 92 (Naamans Road). The phase one and phase two detours are expected to take effect in spring 2011 and spring 2012 respectively.
Road-Con, Inc., of West Chester, Pa., is the general contractor on the $9,865,998 project that is expected to begin this spring and finish in August 2012.
