    Utility Construction Scheduled Next Week on Ridge Pike in Lower Providence Township

    May 07, 2025

    King of Prussia, PA – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced today that utility construction will begin next week on Ridge Pike under a $26.2 million project to improve travel and safety through the Ridge Pike and Germantown Pike Intersection in Lower Providence Township, Montgomery County.

    Motorists are advised of the following travel restriction:

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

    Under this project, PennDOT’s contractor will relocate the Ridge Pike and Germantown Pike Intersection with a new signalized intersection 1,300 feet east of the existing intersection. A new Germantown Pike connector road will be installed between Germantown Pike and Ridge Pike. The Germantown Pike connector road will also extend southwest to Pechins Mill Road. 

    In addition, a roundabout will be installed on the northern end of the new Germantown Pike connector road. River Road will also extend and connect to Germantown Pike via the new roundabout. Other work includes widening Ridge Pike, installing turn lanes at the new Ridge Pike and Germantown Pike Intersection, and stormwater drainage improvements.

    Allan Myers, Inc. of Worcester, PA, is the general contractor on the project, which is financed with 100 percent federal funds.

    For more information, please visit the Ridge Pike and Germantown Pike Intersection Improvement Project webpage.
