Gov. Wolf To Speak In Norristown Tuesday

NORRISTOWN, PA — The Pennsylvania governor will be in Norristown on Tuesday to speak about transportation improvements and how they will affect the region, his office said Sunday.

Governor Wolf will speak at the intersection of Ford Street and E. Lafayette Street.

He will be joined by Pennsylvania Department of Transportation officials who will also address road projects in Norristown and the Montgomery County area, and their impact on regional mobility.

Norristown has been an epicenter of transportation development in the last several years. Perhaps most notably, the Lafayette Street interchange project has received $66 million from PennDOT to fund work through 2024. The new interchange will be a full on/off connection located between the existing Valley Forge and Norristown exits, and will be designed to utilize the Turnpike’s cashless tolling system.

Governor Wolf is expected to speak at around 2:30 p.m.
