The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) invites the public to attend a live virtual public meeting on Wednesday, June 18, for the upcoming project to improve traffic operations and install Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) devices along a 10-mile section of U.S. 1 (Media Bypass/State Road) from Schoolhouse Lane in Concord Township, to just west of Weymouth Road in Springfield Township, Delaware County.
The proposed ITS improvements include the installation of 14 closed-circuit TV cameras, four changeable digital messaging signs, and underground fiber optics and power connections along the U.S. 1 corridor.
This project will also improve travel and safety at the Route 252 (Providence Road) and U.S. 1 Interchange by removing the raised concrete median to construct a designated left-turn lane from Route 252 (Providence Road) to U.S. 1 (Media Bypass).
As part of PennDOT’s project outreach, the department encourages the public to attend the live virtual public meeting on Wednesday, June 18, beginning at 7:00 PM, by clicking on this Microsoft Live Teams meeting link prior to the presentation start time. The department’s design team will deliver a project presentation before opening the meeting to questions using the platform’s Q&A feature.
Please note that internet access or a computer or mobile device are required to view the virtual meeting. Anyone with special needs or requiring special aid is requested to contact PennDOT Project Manager Madeleine Fausto at 610-205-6848, or PennDOT Design Project Manager Brian Lapinsky at 443-330-5505.
Members of the public who are unable to attend the online meeting can view the recording and a copy of the materials on the project webpage following the presentation. The public can also provide feedback using the online comment form.
