Bridge Construction Planned at Night Next Week on U.S. 422, N. Gulph Road in Tredyffrin, Upper Merion Townships

King of Prussia, PA – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced today that overhead bridge work is scheduled at night next week on U.S. 422 and N. Gulph Road in Tredyffrin Township, Chester County, and Upper Merion Township, Montgomery County, under the Pennsylvania Turnpike Commission's project to widen and improve the Turnpike and its bridges between mileposts 324-326.

Motorists are advised of the following travel restrictions:

  • Monday, January 8, through Friday, January 12, from 9:00 PM to 6:00 AM the following morning, a single lane closure will be in place in both directions on U.S 422 between 1st Avenue and U.S. 202; and

The closures will allow the contractor to install protective shielding beneath the new bridge carrying the Turnpike over U.S. 422 and N. Gulph Road for the construction of the center portion of the bridge.

Motorists should use caution and be prepared for slow or stopped traffic approaching the area. The schedule is weather dependent.

The Pennsylvania Turnpike will complete this project under a PennDOT Highway Occupancy Permit.
