TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT
Return to www.US202.com

The Traffic Management Plan (TMP) will develop the strategies to effectively manage traffic within the work zone and minimize traffic related construction impacts associated with the building of the Route 202 Parkway.  The TMP takes into consideration several surrounding construction projects, including the Route 202 widening between Route 63 (Welsh Road) and Hancock Road; County Line Road widening between Route 202 and Stump Road; Horsham Road widening between General Hancock Boulevard and Route 202; and the 5-points intersection.  It also will analyze the maintenance and protection of traffic (MPT) plans for each section of the Parkway and include a public information plan (PIP) and traffic operations plan (TOP).
