Old William Penn road work set to start Friday in Murrysville
Road work on Old William Penn Highway will begin at 7 a.m. Friday beginning at its intersection with Vincent Hall Drive, Murrysville officials announced Thursday morning.
The first portion of work will take place between Vincent Hall and Old William Penn Highway’s western intersection with Route 22. The remainder of Old William Penn Highway to the Cline Hollow Road intersection will eventually be part of the project, with work expected to continue through July 21, according to municipal officials.
Drivers should expect delays and plan an alternative route.
Murrysville council voted unanimously May 5 to award a $1.35 million contract for this year’s paving program to Derry Construction.
While the final list may change slightly before construction begins, it is slated to include Andrews Drive, Carson Avenue, Hills Church Road between Mamont and Sinan Farm, Meadowbrook Road between Ivy Drive and the FTMSA plant, the work on Old William Penn Highway, Simmons Circle, Windgate Drive and Kellman Drive.
