PennDOT - District 6 News: Line Striping Planned Next Week on Callowhill Street in Philadelphia
--- Quote ---PennDOT's contractor will be performing final line markings on the bridge deck. At the completion of the line markings traffic will be able to travel in both directions on Callowhill Street from 15th Street to Broad Street (Route 611).
--- End quote ---
The way I am reading this is that part of Callowhill St is becoming two-way.

Yes, that's not a big deal. It's a one block segment to the west of Broad Street. The portion west of 15th street is already 2 way, so this just continues it to Broad.
The problem will likely be that police cars somehow block it up with only 1 lane per way, as that's the new policy headquarters on that block... (we'll see)

You mean in Wilmington? Or the paving project in Delaware County?

Everything from the PA line north to Exit 8 has been a disaster. My take is because they have to maintain 3 lanes each way, it takes a very long time to get anything done.

PennDOT seems to run that project (and many paving projects) far less efficiently than other organizations, even PTC does much better.

I don't know what they've done other than mill and repave; certainly could be some other stuff going on. But it really is taking a long time to do whatever it is they're doing.

When's the last time you drove through? they took the old barrier wall out, put a new higher one in while doing concrete work on the bridges and fixing all guard rails, along with redoing the concrete sections under the roadway, and repaving.
Fixing all old signs, line strips, reflectors and all.
They basically did a whole major Rehab on the road from the Delaware line to The Airport. Something we can all attest that the portion through Chester needed badly, those broken green reflectors on the barriers were sad to look at now they are gone and the ones that have stayed have been replaced.
