Lansdale Gets $280K From State For New Traffic Signals

The significant funding will provide improved timing and technology to signals around the borough.

LANSDALE, PA — The borough of Lansdale will receive a significant grant from the state to improve traffic signals at several locations around town.

The $280,000 in funding will be used to upgrade seven different traffic signal controller assemblies — the entire system which produces signals. It's part of more than $15 million in funding awarded to municipalities around the state as part of PennDOT's Green Light-Go program.

"The safety improvements supported by the Green Light-Go program not only help municipalities relieve congestion and traffic flow, they help Pennsylvanians move safely and efficiently," Gov. Tom Wolf said in a statement. "I’m proud to help our communities improve mobility for Pennsylvanians."
