On the SWPA thread, 74/171 posted this link as to the future of the Schuylkill (IDK if this has been linked on the Philly or PA threads before; I didn't know about the link until a few moments ago).

Notice the proposed flex lanes between the Turnpike and Conshy and between Belmont and the Roosevelt Expy., which does jog my memory. The gestation of these lanes will be interesting.

People already frequently use the shoulder as a travel lane in this area (and it pisses me off when they do). "Flex lanes" just makes it legal.

I'll be happier when and if they do the coordinated signal timings that are promised. Umbria St/Leverington Ave/Main St/Green Lane is an absolute nightmare in the mornings approaching 76, especially during the 8-9AM hour, and I think signal timings could help. Similarly, Belmont Ave/Rock Hill Road in Lower Marion Township in the afternoons, particularly during the 5:30-6:30pm hour.

Does anyone know what PennDOT is working on along I-76 from Belmont-ish area to Roosevelt Avenue? Seems like they are resurfacing but they've moved lanes around and destroyed the old concrete median.

Yeah, I thought it was just a general resurfacing project.

Most likely they are doing what they have been doing on all the current resurfacing & improvement projects in the area.

They have been destroying old barrier medians, repairing/bringing new ones in & then repaving the roads, improving signage, lighting and reflectors.

It's been apart of the whole infrastructure they have been doing in the area, the first example of this is 95 from the Delaware Line to 476, they redid everything, and put a brand new barrier wall in the Chester portion as well.

It's very well needed, and I cant wait till 76 is smooth as butter and looking good, they just finished the bridge project on the 1 by Manuyunk and it's nice.

It is now reopened, luckily thousands of gallons of gas weren't involved this time to melt it.
