Route 422 to close in both directions Sunday

Route 422 will be closed in both directions and detoured between the Route 202 and Route 23 interchanges in Upper Merion and Tredyffrin townships on Sunday from 6 to 10 a.m., according to the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation.

The road closing, which is dependent on the weather, is to allow for the resetting of overhead utility wires by PECO Energy, PennDOT says.

During the Route 422 closure, the following detours will be in effect:
Route 422 East Detour: Eastbound Route 422 traffic will exit at Route 23; turn right at Route 23; turn left at Gulph Road; and take Gulph Road to Route 202;

Route 202 North to Route 422 West Detour: Northbound Route 202 traffic will turn left at Gulph Road; take Gulph Road to Route 23; turn right at Route 23 and then turn left at the ramp to Route 422 West; and

Interstate 76 East/West and Route 202 South to Route 422 West Detour: I-76 and southbound Route 202 motorists will take the ramp to the Swedesford Road exit; turn right at Swedesford Road; turn left at South Warner Road; turn left at Gulph Road; turn right at Route 23 and turn left at the ramp to Route 422 West.
Route 422 motorists are advised to allow additional time for travel Sunday morning during this operation, which is dependent on the weather.

PennDOT reminds motorists they can log on to 511pa.com or call 511 from any phone to check traffic conditions on major highways before heading out.
