Road Construction Updates

PECO is replacing the gas lines under all the streets of the Borough.  The South-side is finished and re-paved, and the multi-year North-side project has begun.   The next several weeks will be some of the most challenging, as the project moves through the downtown on weekdays, from 7am-3pm.  Cars cannot make a right on Haverford, from the movie theater side of N Narberth Ave, today and tomorrow (Monday -Tuesday, June 5-6).  You CAN make a left on Haverford to head towards Montgomery.

They are trying to get out of that Haverford & Forrest intersection asap, but many of these ancient utility lines are mismarked or unmarked, causing problems that slow everything down.  On Wednesday, they should be far enough down Haverford Ave that cars can detour through the lower parking lot (behind McShea's) like we do during the music festivals.  If you come over the bridge on Tuesday, you can carefully (watch for pedestrians) work your way through the upper (Little Gym) lot.

If you're approaching the downtown from the direction of the park, turn down Forrest instead of Narberth Ave.

BTW, Rose and I will try to update this ongoing construction info as often as we can.  This is a web page (as opposed to a Facebook post), so you can share this link with anyone online:  http://www.narberthonline.com/narberth-news-and-notes.  

​One last thing - remember that this construction is especially hard on our downtown businesses, so make every effort to patronize them even more than usual.  Narberth will have a special downtown as long as we make a commitment to support our favorite stores - especially now, when they really need it.
