Ridge Pike Lane Closures to Start 11/6/25
PennDOT announced that roadway construction will reduce Ridge Pike to a single lane in each direction, between Germantown Pike and Crosskeys Road, through January 2027 under a $26.2 million project to improve travel and safety through the Ridge Pike and Germantown Pike intersection.
Motorists are advised of the following travel restriction:
Thursday, Nov. 6, 2025 through Friday, January 29, 2027, Ridge Pike will be reduced to a single lane in each direction 24/7 between Germantown Pike and Crosskeys Road. Motorists are advised to allow extra time when traveling through the work area because backups and delays may occur. All scheduled activities are weather dependent.
This traffic shift marks the completion of utility work and the start of Stage 1 construction on the project. Under this project, PennDOT’s contractor will relocate the Ridge Pike and Germantown Pike Intersection with a new signalized intersection 1,300 feet east of the existing intersection. A new Germantown Pike connector road will be installed between Germantown Pike and Ridge Pike. The Germantown Pike connector road will also extend southwest to Pechins Mill Road.
In addition, a roundabout will be installed on the northern end of the new Germantown Pike connector road. River Road will also extend and connect to Germantown Pike via the new roundabout. Other work includes widening Ridge Pike, installing turn lanes at the new Ridge Pike and Germantown Pike Intersection, and stormwater drainage improvements.
Allan Myers, Inc. of Worcester, PA, is the general contractor on the project, which is financed with 100 percent federal funds.
