Horsham Receives $597K From State To Improve Five Traffic Signals

HORSHAM, PA — Horsham Township has received more than half a million from the state to make vast improvements to five critical intersections.

The intersections, along Horsham Road and Dresher Road, will all receive modernized traffic signals and fiber optic communications, according to Gov. Wolf's Office. The total amount of funding is $597,626.

The project is one of nine in Montgomery County and one of 70 across Pennsylvania that was approved Thursday by the state.

“This is the fourth round of funding disbursed to support increased safety and mobility across more Pennsylvania towns,” Gov. Wolf said in a statement.

Funded through the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation's "Green Light-Go" program, grants are provided as reimbursement to municipalities for updates to improve the efficiency and operation of existing traffic signals.

Grant funding through the Green Light – Go Program may be utilized for a range of operational improvements including LED technology, traffic signal retiming, and related issues.
