48174 | PA 63, PA 152, Norristown Road at Maple Glen Triangle (Upper Dublin Township & Horsham Township, Montgomery County)
The project involves roadway widening and capacity improvements along SR 63 (Welsh Road), SR 2007 (Norristown Road) and SR 152 (Limekiln Pike). Welsh Road and Norristown Road will be widened to a 5 lane section with center left turn lanes. The existing 3 lane section along Limekiln Pike will remain with some additional capacity improvements. The cross section will not provide shoulders. Concrete curbing will be installed. The intersections will be improved to include left turn lanes and some channelized right turn lanes. Some sidewalks are currently located within the project. 4’ sidewalks with a 3’ grass strip from face of curb are proposed through the project limits. New traffic signal upgrades are proposed for all three project intersections. Signalized intersections will include pushbuttons and hand/man indications.
SR 0063 is to be one lane in each direction with a 2-way center turn lane and added turn lanes at intersections. Norristown and Limekiln Roads are similar. The Townships involved expressed interest in bike lanes, which are not part of this project, but the shoulders were designed to be wide enough for them to be added later on if desired. New signalization and possible replacement of worn out road signage.
Signal Replacements will take place at the following intersections: SR 63 (Welsh Road) and SR 2007 (Norristown Road); SR 63 (Welsh Road) and SR 152 (Limekiln Pike); and SR 2007 (Norristown Road) and SR 152 (Limekiln Pike).
Project limits are as follows:
SR 63-1000’ south of Norristown Road intersection to 1200’ north of Limekiln Pike intersection
SR 2007-850’ west of Limekiln Pike intersection to 850’ east of Welsh Road intersection
