Expand the Project Area by Better Utilizing Existing Roadways
Utilize
Adjacent High Capacity Facilities
The
light bluegreen area marks the current extent of the PENNDOT project area for
the Woodhaven Road Extension Project.
Note
the proximity of existing high capacity roadways to the project area such as:
Route 1
Street
Road
Red
Lion Road
Bustleton
Pike
The
Route 1 Build Alternative proposes to direct traffic volumes to their destinations
to avoid directing that traffic through the current project area. However, results
of the Byberry Road Origin and Destination study show that the traffic is local
in nature and not regional. Regardless, expanding the project area by considering
a better utilization of nearly high capacity roads will alleviate congestion in
the project area.
