The transportation challenge facing many communities along PA Route 100 is how to best manage their transportation network as the surrounding area develops. As a result of current and anticipated development, weekday commuter rush hour traffic has the potential to increase by as much as 50 percent to 150 percent along various segments of the study corridor. Regrettably, very few of the study intersections can accommodate such drastic traffic growth, resulting in severe congestion along most of the corridor. The purpose of this study is to create an effective and sustainable plan to accommodate future traffic volumes resulting from intense development potential, improve safety and mobility along the corridor, provide for multiple modes of travel as practical, and promote smart growth practices.Geographic Area Covered: North Coventry Township in Chester County, Douglass Township, Pottstown Borough, Upper Pottsgrove Township, and West Pottsgrove Township in Montgomery County, and Boyertown Borough, and Colebrookdale Township in Berks County
Key Words: PA Route 100, transportation, traffic study, Tri-county, development, corridor study, transportation improvement alternatives, limited access, traffic volumes, level of service, LOS, continuous flow intersection, CFI, single-point urban interchange, SPUI, traffic operations
