Project Overview
This project will reconstruct and widen four miles of the Pennsylvania Turnpike from milepost 312 to milepost 316 in Upper Uwchlan, Uwchlan, West Pikeland, and Charlestown Townships in Chester County. The roadway will be widened from four lanes to six, featuring three 12-foot-wide travel lanes in each direction, a 26-foot median, and 12-foot-wide shoulders.
The project also involves replacing mainline bridges over local roads, lengthening culverts, and improving stormwater drainage through the area. As part of this multi-phase project, the PA Turnpike has replaced two overhead bridge replacements at Bodine Road and Valley Hill Road (SR 1021) and will replace three mainline bridges at Pine Creek Road, Conestoga Road (SR 401), and Downingtown Interchange Ramps (Exit 312/Route 100). The roadway and mainline bridge replacements are currently under construction with an estimated project completion in 2027.
Upon completion, this reconstruction and widening project will enhance safety and mobility for travelers on this section of the interstate.
