112232 | I-76 Slope Repair Westbound (Lower Merion Township, Montgomery County)

This project involves the construction of permanent slope repairs along I-76 Westbound near mile post 335.3 in Lower Merion Township, Montgomery County. Slope failure has occurred along the I-76 Westbound shoulder. County maintenance forces have evaluated and performed temporary repairs, but the slope has continued to erode and fail over time. This has placed the I-76 travel lanes at risk of destabilization and failure. A more permanent solution will be required to avoid the possible closure of the roadway for repair in the event of a major slope failure. The causes of the slope failures may include water, erosion, and/or a loss of vegetative support. A site reconnaissance and investigation will be performed to assist with designing remedial measures, which may include excavation and replacement with rip rap, excavation and stabilization with soil nails, and other measures.
