A Schnecksville intersection is getting an upgrade, thanks to Multimodal Transportation funding.

The Multimodal Transportation Fund provides financial assistance to municipalities, councils of governments, businesses, economic development organizations, public transportation agencies, and ports and rail freight entities. By improving transportation assets, this program seeks to enhance communities, pedestrian safety and transit revitalization.

King’s Business Park Schnecksville LP is receiving $2,096,367 for removal of Route 873 traffic signals at Route 309 and Schneck Road and the installation of a roundabout, along with stormwater management and pedestrian crossing improvements.

Jackson Township in Monroe County received $500,000 for repairs to the Mountain View Bridge.

Kline Township Supervisors in Schuylkill County received $216,022 to resurface, re-stripe and trim branches over residential and commercial roadways in the township.

“Infrastructure is critical to our Commonwealth’s progress, and our ability to complete major projects is key to spurring economic growth and create real opportunity,” said Gov.Josh Shapiro. “Investing in and improving our infrastructure is a commonsense way to spur economic development, create jobs, and help Pennsylvanians reach their destinations safely and efficiently. These improvements will help our communities grow as we continue working together to move Pennsylvania forward.”

Reflecting PennDOT’s commitment to improving locally owned infrastructure, several projects will also help local governments address bridges and roadways in need of repair or replacement. By investing in and prioritizing transportation projects, the Shapiro administration aims to create a more prosperous and connected future for all Pennsylvanians.

“Whether we’re making roadways more accessible to all modes of travel or creating new connections for businesses investing in our communities, transportation is integral to our quality of life,” said PennDOT Secretary Mike Carroll. “These projects will bring long-lasting improvements across the state.”

On Sept. 23, at 8 a.m., PennDOT will begin accepting applications for the next round of funding for grants under the Multimodal Transportation Fund.

Applications are due by 4 p.m. on Nov. 5. PennDOT expects to announce grant recipients next year for funding that will be available in July 2025.
