More Route 202 Lane Closures Coming this Weekend

PennDot will continue construction on Route 202 in West Goshen Township.

As part of an on-going $19.3 million project PennDot will continue to work on Route 202 beginning next weekend.

PennDot will close lanes and impose travel restrictions as construction crews continue to work to improve the highway.

Here is the construction schedule as provided by PennDot through a press release:

"On Tuesday through Friday (April 26-29) from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m., Route 202’s northbound right shoulder will be restricted from Westtown Road to Route 100 for the installation of conduit for Intelligent Transportation System components.

From 8 p.m. Friday (April 29) to 8 p.m. Sunday (May 1), Route 202’s southbound right lane will be closed between the Route 100 and Route 3 (West Chester Pike) interchanges for the removal and replacement of concrete pavement. PennDOT advises motorists to use an alternate route or allow more time for travel because backups will occur due to the single-lane pattern.

From 7 p.m. Friday (April 29) to 7 p.m. Sunday (May 1), the Route 202 South off ramp to Paoli Pike and the Paoli Pike on-ramp to Route 202 South will be closed and detoured for concrete patching. Posted detours will take southbound Route 202 traffic to the Westtown Road exit, then left on Westtown Road and left onto the ramp to Route 202 North and follow Route 202 North to the Paoli Pike exit. Paoli Pike drivers wishing to go south on Route 202 will be detoured north on Route 202 to the Boot Road exit, then left on Boot Road and left onto the ramp to Route 202 South."

PennDot asks all motorists to allow extra time in travels and to expect delays. 

The project will continue through May 2012.
