    ​U.S. 202 (Dekalb Pike) ​​Sinkhole Remediation Project​​

    Project Overview

    County: Montgomery
    Municipality: Upper Merion Township
    State Route(s): U.S. 202
    Local Name(s): Dekalb Pike
    Project Type: Sinkhole Remediation
    Last Updated: January 2026

    The U.S. 202 (Dekalb Pike) sinkhole remediation project will provide a long-term solution to address repeat sinkholes that have occurred within the roadways. The proposed work will be completed along U.S. 202 (DeKalb Pike) in Upper Merion Township, Montgomery County, between Henderson Road and Saulin Boulevard. The proposed scope of work includes a limited mobility grouting program that will involve drilling holes through the pavement in a “grid” pattern. Pressurized grout will be injected into the drilled holes to fill subsurface voids beneath the roadway. The filling of subsurface voids will help stabilize the ground beneath the pavement and reduce the risk of future sinkholes. Additional proposed work for this project includes drainage pipe replacement and pavement reconstruction.

    Construction Update

    PA American Water will be performing a water main installation on southbound U.S. 202 (Dekalb Pike) in Upper Merion Township, Montgomery County.

    Motorists are advised of the following travel restriction:

    Drivers are advised to allow extra time when traveling through the work area because backups and delays will occur. The schedule is weather dependent.

    The water main installation is part of advance work before stage 2 of PennDOT’s sinkhole remediation project begins on southbound U.S. 202 (Dekalb Pike) sometime this spring.

    PennDOT reopened northbound U.S. 202 (Dekalb Pike) on Tuesday, November 4, 2025, following eight months of construction to repair and reconstruct the roadway.
