Temporary Closure on North Ship Road in Exton for Construction

Commencing today, North Ship Road has been temporarily shut down between the Chester Valley Trail and East Lincoln Highway in the southbound direction. This road segment will remain inaccessible for a minimum of one week. Regrettably, a number of individuals have needed to be cautioned about the significance of these road closure signs. We kindly request that you refrain from bypassing the "Road Closed" indicators and entering the construction area. For those traveling north on North Ship Road, exercise extra caution and consideration for the construction personnel working in the vicinity. Your cooperation is greatly appreciated.

Council members are enthusiastic about the revenue-generating potential of this sustainable energy initiative.
