    ​​​Route 73 (Church Road) Intersection Improvements

    Project Overview

    County: Montgomery
    State Route(s): Route 73, Route 2054
    Local Name(s): Church Road, Greenwood Avenue, Rices Mill Road 
    Project Type: Intersection Improvements

    This project is located in Cheltenham Township, Montgomery County, and will improve traffic flow and safety on Route 73 (Church Road) at its intersections with Greenwood Avenue and Rices Mill Road. Proposed project improvements include roadway widening to support left turn lanes along Route 73 (Church Road) at the intersection of Greenwood Avenue and improvements to Greenwood Avenue near the intersection.  

    The horizontal curvature along Church Road will also be less severe to improve visibility and sight distance near the intersection. Coordination with Cheltenham Township has added a sidewalk to the project to provide pedestrian access from the adjacent homes and from Wyncote Elementary School to Curtis Arboretum. Additional project improvements include traffic signal replacements, ADA ramps with new pedestrian crosswalks, the installation of a new drainage pipe and stormwater management system, replanting trees within Curtis Arboretum, and the reconstruction of stone walls impacted by the project. 

    The project was advertised for construction on January 26, 2024, and was awarded to Allan Myers, LP of Worcester Pennsylvania.  Construction has already begun and is anticipated to be completed in 2026.

    Utility work is ongoing and will continue into the spring of 2025.  Full roadway closures or single lane closures are scheduled and can be expected between 9 AM and 3 PM to facilitate the utility work.​
