Public Open House in Chester for PA 291



From Delaware Valley Regional Planning Commission (DVRPC)

I hope you will be able to join us at an upcoming meeting to gather public input for a new planning project: the PA 291 Access Management Study. The meeting will be held on Wednesday, January 29, 2014, from 6:00 P.M. – 7:30 P.M. at the Chester City Community Room. The Community Room is located at Chester City Hall, 1 Fourth Street

The access management study is being conducted by the Delaware Valley Regional Planning Commission (DVRPC) as part of its long-range planning effort to address potential improvements to PA 291 in the City of Chester and adjacent municipalities.

The overall goals of the study are to recommend policies to achieve a more sustainable region, predicated on better linking land use and transportation plans and projects to achieve smart growth. These can be achieved by providing local government with both short-term and long-term recommendations for land use and transportation improvements that will not only allow for safe and efficient flow of traffic throughout the corridor, but also but also preserve and improve the livability of the corridor and identify needed transportation improvements.

The study will identify conceptual improvement alternatives that are aesthetically and functionally compatible with the needs of the community. We hope you will be able to join us and share your concerns and ideas for this corridor. 

If you have any questions, please contact David Anderson, Manager, DVRPC Office of Transportation and Corridor Studies at 215-238-2825 or danderson@dvrpc.org.
