This project serves as the preliminary design phase of a project to reconstruct approximately 14 miles of mainline pavement; potential addition of through lanes and operational improvements as required by traffic analysis for the eastern section; reconstruction and widening of the mainline shoulders; replacement and widening of mainline bridge superstructures; construction of new ramps (to complete partial interchanges at Airport Road); reconstruction, realignment, and lengthening of all on and off ramps (to provide storage length for traffic signals and ramp metering); reconstruction of arterial overpasses; installation of ITS elements (dynamic message signs, closed circuit television, incident detection, and ramp meters); and minor improvements to parallel arterial routes (to be determined) to improve safety, reduce congestion, and upgrade deteriorating infrastructure. This project is for preliminary design only; final design, utility, right of way, and construction phases are identified in MPMS #87781 (Eastern section) and MPMS #84884 (Western section; 2013 estimated cost is $250 million). Additional study work will be undertaken under this MPMS # to determine the appropriate approach to address new capacity and operational needs of the eastern section, as well as the western section as needed. The full length of the corridor is located in West Sadsbury Township, Sadsbury Township, Valley Township, Coatesville City, West Caln Township, Caln Township, East Caln Township, and Downingtown Borough.
Earmarks--SAFETEA DEMO #3172, PA ID# 504 - $0 remaining; PA ID #146- $0 remaining. The overall corridor construction cost estimate is $784 million.
