Road Construction Project Updates
Old Bethlehem Pike Bridge Replacement Project:
The Old Bethlehem Pike Bridge Replacement Project began January 5, 2026. The bridge located between 1108-1122 Old Bethlehem Pike will be removed and replaced with a new pre-cast concrete arch bridge with a textured pattern and concrete walls. In addition to the bridge replacement, the Township will be completing a streambank restoration project in this same location. Both projects are funded through state grants.

Penllyn Pike and Trewellyn Avenue/Old Penllyn Pike Traffic Signal Modernization Project
Lower Gwynedd Township was recently awarded a PA Green Light Go grant for a traffic signal modernization project at the Penllyn Pike and Trewellyn Avenue / Old Penllyn Pike intersection. The project will replace the existing traffic signal equipment, emergency preemption system and vehicle detection systems. In addition, the project will upgrade the existing pedestrian facilities including pedestrian signal heads with countdown display, push buttons, and ADA ramps.
The Township Traffic Engineer Bowman Consulting Group will be completing topographic survey work for the project design at the intersection during the month of March. The estimated schedule for design/permitting/bidding is a minimum of 12 – 14 months, dependent on agency reviews times from PennDOT and Montgomery County. It is anticipated the earliest construction could begin is late 2026/early 2027. Project schedule updates will be provided on the township website during the course of the project.
