Germantown Av Construction - 4/13-18

Construction work this week will remain focused around the Cresheim Valley Drive area and current closure. Note that there will be some Philadelphia Gas Works activity in the areas of Gowen Avenue and Allens Lane along the west side of Germantown Avenue, across from the seminary, which might require lane changes. Check www.Ltsp.edu/germantownave for alternate routes to the LTSP campus.

Here's the latest from PennDOT and West Mt. Airy Neighbors:

CRESHEIM VALLEY ROAD CLOSURE/WORK INSIDE THE CLOSURE:
The Cresheim Valley Road closure will likely go later than the orginally scheduled date of April 24th. We will let you know more as we learn more. Work will take place on Saturdays and possibly Sunday. See the March 31 Alert for more details.

WORK NEAR WINSTON ROAD, CHESTNUT HILL:
There will be work during the week in and around the Winston Road intersection with Germantown Avenue. The TLA shopping center will remain open and accessible.

INTERSECTION/GERMANTOWN AVENUE AND ROUMFORT ROAD
The closure of Roumfort Road at Germantown Avenue will continue until future notice, as deep storm and sanitary lines are installed.

OTHER WORK IN THE CONSTRUCTION ZONE
PGW is working from Roumfort to Gowen, followed by the construction crew. They will be moving as far as Allens Lane soon. Expect shoulder and sidewalk closures in this area.

SAVE THE AVENUE COALITION: Remember that all businesses remain open during the construction project. Visit the Save the Avenue website, www.savetheave.org, for updated information, including special promotions and information on how you can support our merchants.
