Overnight Lane Closures On 422 Could Lead To Delays

For three nights this week, lanes will be closed in both directions on US 422 near Valley Forge as PennDOT completes work.

The closures will be in effect between Trooper Road and First Avenue, PennDOT announced in a press release Thursday.

The work will last from Tuesday, July 5 through Thursday, July 8, officials said.

Median shoulder excavation and paving will reduce traffic from two lanes to one in both directions.
The east closure will take place from 7 p.m. to 5 a.m., while the westbound closure will take place from 9 p.m. to 6 a.m., PennDOT said.

The construction is part of the ongoing $97.4 million project to improve travel throughout 422.
Construction began in February 2016 and is scheduled to finish in May 2020.
