    DISTRICT 6 PROJECTS - Philadelphia County

    Castor Avenue and Wyoming Avenue Roundabout​​​ Construction Project

    castor ave project location

    Project Overview

    County: Philadelphia
    Municipality: City of Philadelphia
    State Route(s): Route 1005
    Local Name(s): Wyoming Avenue, Castor Avenue
    ​Project Type: Roundabout Construction
    Last Updated: July 2025

    The project involves the reconstruction of the intersection of Castor Avenue and Wyoming Avenue in the City of Philadelphia, PA, to an improved roundabout. This includes retrofitting the approach geometry and narrowing the circulatory roadway to slow the speeds of vehicles navigating the roundabout. Sidewalks and crossings will be upgraded for ADA compliance, and bicycle ramps will also be installed to allow cyclists to navigate the roundabout as pedestrians. In addition, the existing mid-block crosswalk on Wyoming Avenue at the Temple OB/GYN facility will be raised, and an accessible pedestrian signal will be installed. This will allow pedestrians to activate the flasher when crossing.

    The project is anticipated to be completed under staged construction, maintaining traffic through the roundabout.​
