SR 248/Airport Road Intersection East Allen Township Northampton County
Project Narrative
This project will alleviate daily recurring congestion on SR 248 westbound and on SR 3023 northbound where the two roadways intersect by considering traffic signalization and other upgrades such as left turning lanes in East Allen Township, Northampton County. Traffic on SR 3023 northbound is unable to pull out onto SR 248 due to insufficient gaps in traffic causing both congestion and safety concerns.
