King of Prussia, PA - The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced today that roadway reconstruction will close Cowpath Road beginning Monday, July 29 in Hatfield and Franconia townships, Montgomery County.
Motorists are advised of the following travel restriction:
Local access will be maintained through the work zone. Motorists are advised to allow extra time when near the work area because backups and delays will occur.
The roadway reconstruction on Cowpath Road is part of PennDOT's Route 309 Section HT2 project, which covers 2.3 miles and is the second of three contracts to move to construction to build the five-mile-long Route 309 Connector Project in Montgomery and Bucks counties to enhance mobility and safety for motorists traveling between Route 309 and the Pennsylvania Turnpike Interchange.
The first section under PennDOT's Route 309 Connector program, Section HAT, was completed in 2012 and included rebuilding and realigning approximately 1.5 miles of Wambold Road from Route 63 to Allentown Road in Franconia Township.
The final section, Section HT3, from Hatfield/Souderton Pike to County Line Road, Route 309 and Fairhill Road in Hatfield and Franconia townships, Montgomery County, and Hilltown Township, Bucks County, is currently in design.
Motorists can check conditions on major roadways by visiting www.511PA.com. 511PA, which is free and available 24 hours a day, provides traffic delay warnings, weather forecasts, traffic speed information, and access to more than 1,000 traffic cameras. 511PA is also available through a smartphone application for iPhone and Android devices, by calling 5-1-1, or by following regional X alerts.
