A portion of Belvidere Road will close Nov. 6-16

PERRYVILLE — The section of Belvidere Road that travels over Interstate 95 will be closed to traffic from Nov. 6 through Nov. 16, according to the Maryland Transportation Authority. This is part of the construction of the new interchange for I-95. Belvidere Road is being widened to four lanes for the ingress and egress on and off the interstate. ”The work includes improvements to Belvidere Road to accommodate the interchange and larger bridge structure,” an MDTA spokesman said. “The project will replace the existing overpass and construct new ramps connecting Belvidere Road to I-95.” When it was officially launched by then-Gov. Larry Hogan in October 2022, the plan was to have it completed by 2025. MDTA has not announced a new completion date. The $65 million project aims to reduce truck traffic on US Route 40 and Maryland Routes 222 and 272. Traffic will be detoured via Theodore Road.

Transportation Planners Gathering Public Comments for Draft Berks County Active Transportation Plan

Berks County transportation planners are seeking input from the public on how to reduce barriers to walking, bicycling, and accessibility in Berks County and the best methods to achieve those goals. The car has been the dominant choice for people to travel to work, school, shopping centers, etc. As roads become congested and air quality diminishes, people look for other ways to get where they want to go. Additionally, some people do not own a vehicle, and the only way to get around Berks County is to travel on foot, by bicycle, or by using an assistive device. Also, increased health awareness and changes in transportation choices — including the rapid increase in the use of e-bikes and e-scooters — necessitate a review of the overall transportation system.
