Traffic Relief Arrives as Pa. Turnpike Unveils Route 29 All-Electronic Interchange
Governor Tom Corbett cuts ribbon to open the $60 million, E-ZPass-Only exit.
Governor Tom Corbett joined Pennsylvania Turnpike Commissioners today to celebrate the opening of a new, All-Electronic Interchange linking State Route 29 with the mainline Turnpike (Interstate 76) in Chester County. They were joined by federal, state and local elected officials and area business executives at a ribbon cutting ceremony on the site of the new Atwater Drive on-ramp in East Whiteland Township.The link - the first four-way interchange to be constructed on the mainline Turnpike in decades - is solely for use by E-ZPass customers, who make up two-thirds of Turnpike users Southeastern Pennsylvania. Construction for the $50 million project was begun in March 2011.
"This project shows in concrete, brick and mortar and glass, the connection between transportation and our economy", said Governor Tom Corbett. "As we make it easier to reach our places of commerce, those places and the jobs they create will grow. Jobs and prosperity, after all, are what these projects are about."
Located about midway between the Downingtown and Valley Forge interchanges, the Route 29 Interchange is designated as Interchange #320. The 14-mile section of Turnpike between Downingtown and Valley Forge is the heaviest traveled of any four-lane section on the east-west Turnpike mainline, carrying 50,000 vehicles per day, on average.
