PennDOT to Host Open House Public Meeting Tomorrow for the Interstate 476 Flex Lane Project in Delaware County

King of Prussia, PA – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) invites citizens to attend an Open House Plans Display on Tuesday, May 13, from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM at the Community Arts Center at 414 Plush Mill Road in Wallingford, PA, to review improvement plans for the upcoming project to construct a flexible travel lane on I-476 in both directions between the Route 3 and I-95 interchanges, and on southbound I-95 between the I-476 and U.S. 322 interchanges in Delaware County.

The meeting will be conducted as an open house where citizens will have the opportunity to circulate among the subject displays to gather information and discuss the different facets of the project with PennDOT’s design teams.

The I-476 Flex Lane project will provide a series of measures that will allow for the dynamic management of recurring congestion based on prevailing and predicted traffic conditions. Specifically, the inside shoulders of I-476 will be expanded to allow for these shoulders to be operated as travel lanes in response to congestion or incidents. Additionally, adaptive ramp metering will be used to dynamically adjust signals at the ramp entrances to proactively manage vehicle flow from on-ramps.

As part of PennDOT's public outreach program, the department also held a live virtual public meeting on Tuesday, May 6. The meeting recording, comment form, and other project materials can be found on the I-476 Flex Lanes project page.
