Roadway Construction Continues on Business U.S. 322 (High Street) Safety Improvement Project in West Chester Borough, West Goshen Township

​King of Prussia, PA - The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced today that roadway construction will continue next week on a project to improve safety at the intersections along the Business U.S. 322 (High Street) corridor in West Chester Borough and West Goshen Township, Chester County.

Motorists are advised of the following travel restrictions:

• Monday, October 28, through Friday, November 1, from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM, periodic weekday lane closures with flagging are scheduled on Business U.S. 322 (High Street) between Barnard Street and Linden Street.
  

Motorists are advised to allow extra time when traveling near and through the work areas because backups and delays will occur. All scheduled activities are weather dependent.

Under this contract, PennDOT's contractor will install new traffic signals at University Avenue and Sharpless Street and provide signal support and related equipment. The project will consist of the installation of retroreflective backplates on existing signals, modern LED luminaries, pedestrian countdown timers at signalized intersections, curb extensions, high-visibility crosswalks, drainage improvements, and comprehensive full-depth pavement restoration, culminating in a complete roadway resurfacing.

Marino Corporation of Skippack, Pennsylvania, is the general contractor on the $2,619,998 project which is financed with 100 percent federal funds. Physical construction on the project is expected to finish in winter 2026.
