The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation invites the public to participate in a live virtual public meeting regarding the improvement project for the intersection of Valley Brook and Bebout roads in Peters Township.
The meeting is scheduled for 5 to 6:30 p.m. Jan. 19. The purpose of the project is to relieve congestion while improving safety and enhancing access to the Arrowhead Trail parking lot by constructing a single-lane roundabout at the intersection.
Featured during the meeting will be a short presentation to introduce the project, plus an opportunity for participants to share their concerns directly via polling questions or moderated chat-discussions with the project team.
