Plans are for the widening of both Horsham Road and Limekiln Pike to provide more capacity through the busy intersection. Other upgrades include new traffic lights and five-foot sidewalks will be installed at the intersection, as well as Americans With Disabilities Act-compliant ramps and a new pedestrian-crossing signal.
Walker said that the township is wrapping up right-of-way acquisition with three properties left. He said the township started trying to negotiate with 41 property owners for right-of-way.
