EXTON — It took 29 years to get from proposal to the pick and shovel, but today it's official.
PennDot will start construction on the Exton Bypass today with groundbreaking ceremonies at 10 a.m. near the heart of the problem the bypass is designed to correct - the traffic at the crossroads of Routes 100 and 30 in Exton.
State Transportation Secretary Howard Yerusalim and the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation district engineer Stephen B. Lester will officiate as local and state officials gather alongside northbound Route 100, a half-mile south of Route 30 in West Whiteland Township.
