TRAFFIC LIGHT OUT OF SERVICE

Please be advised that the traffic light at Stenton Ave and Northwestern Ave/W Wissahickon Ave is currently out of service.

The light sustained damage from a lightning strike last week. Replacement equipment has been ordered, but the intersection is expected to remain without a functioning traffic signal for approximately two weeks while we wait for the new equipment to arrive.

In the meantime, the signal may display a steady red light in some directions and a flashing yellow light in others. Please remember:

-Red light: Treat the intersection as you would a stop sign. Come to a complete stop and proceed only when it is safe to do so.

-Flashing yellow light: Yield, then proceed with caution and be alert for other vehicles, pedestrians, and changing traffic conditions.

Please use caution when traveling through the intersection and follow all applicable traffic rules.

Thank you for your patience and cooperation.

Remembering Detective James Williams

Today, we remember and honor Detective James Williams, who passed away on July 30, 2026.

Detective Williams joined the Springfield Township Police Department on July 1, 1975, and dedicated 27 years of service to our community before retiring on August 2, 2002. During his career, Jim served as a Police Officer and Detective, including serving as Detective in Charge.

A proud Army veteran, Jim continued serving the community after his retirement as a Court Crier for the Honorable Judge William R. Carpenter of the Montgomery County Court of Common Pleas.

His dedication and service to Springfield Township will not be forgotten.

A Celebration of Life will be held today, August 10, from 4:00 to 8:00 p.m. at the Flourtown Country Club.

Please join us in remembering Detective Williams and keeping the Williams family in your thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.

View James Charles Williams's obituary, send flowers, find service dates, and sign the guestbook.
