Traffic Restored on Route 30 After Emergency Roadwork

DOWNINGTOWN, PA — Traffic on Route 30 Bypass has returned to normal after crews swiftly repaired a sinkhole that had caused major congestion near Route 113. The hole, which opened Sunday evening, forced lane closures and led to heavy delays during Monday’s commute. Repair crews worked throughout the day, successfully restoring the roadway ahead of schedule. PennDOT officials will continue investigating the cause of the sinkhole while monitoring the area for further concerns.

Temporary Closure Planned for Pennsylvania Avenue

DOWNINGTOWN, PA — Downingtown drivers should prepare for a temporary road closure on Tuesday, February 25, as Pennsylvania Avenue near Stuart Avenue will be shut down for utility work. The closure, scheduled from 9 a.m. to 2:30 p.m., is necessary for Danella Construction to complete a project on behalf of PECO.

Traffic in the area may be affected, and motorists are encouraged to use alternate routes. While the work is expected to be completed within the designated timeframe, slight delays could extend the closure.

Saint Agnes Church Restores Home-Cooked Meal Program After Health Dispute

WEST CHESTER, PA — Saint Agnes Church in West Chester has reinstated its long-running home-cooked meal program after reaching an agreement with the Chester County Health Department.

The church’s meal service, which provides for hundreds of residents in need, is a key part of its mission to serve the community.
