87781 | US 30, Coatesville Downingtown Bypass (CER-Eastern Section) (East Caln Township, Chester County)

This project provides for the final design, right-of-way, utility and construction phases of the Coatesville-Downingtown Bypass Reconstruction - eastern section - by reconstructing and widening the mainline shoulders; replacing and widening the mainline bridge superstructures; constructing new ramps (to complete partial interchanges ); reconstructing, realigning, and lengthening all on and off ramps (to provide storage length for traffic signals and/or ramp metering); and reconstructing arterial overpasses.
The overall corridor construction cost estimate is $784 million. MPMS# 14532 provides for the preliminary design portion of this project and the western section, as well as additional study work to determine the approach for this eastern section. MPMS #s 107551, 107553, and 107554 contains the construction of the western section, originally housed under MPMS# 84884.
Project CMP (Congestion Management Process) commitments include expansion of Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) equipment throughout the corridor, signal improvements on parallel arterials, numerous improvements to rail transit stations and services in consultation with SEPTA and Amtrak, improved access to rail stations, sidewalks and other improvements for pedestrians and bicyclists on parallel arterials, investigation of park-and-ride locations, and outreach to employers to promote transportation demand management strategies. See DVRPC’s 2016-2017 memorandum on supplemental strategies for details related to this project.
$125.353M out of an estimated $632.848M (2023 CON estimate of $530M YOE’d to FY29) is programmed for construction beginning in FY29. The construction balance that is not shown in FY29-FY36 is in the Long-Range Plan.

Limits: US 30, from East of Reeceville Rd Interchange to Quarry Rd.
Air Quality Code: 2045M
