From Linda C:
The email comes from PA Rep. Kate Harper and generally addresses the many concerns that have been raised by our neighborhood and others on a variety of issues. Several of us who have been in touch with Kate and the Township on the landscaping and sound barrier issues made it clear that we would forward any correspondence from them to our neighbors. I would still encourage any neighbors who haven't expressed concerns about any issues relative to 202 to please send those comments and suggestions to both Kate's email and Larry Comunale at the Township. I believe Gwen Douse has provided those email addresses in a previous email.
Much thanks...Linda Callegari, Claudia Way
Dear Gwen and Linda and Gwynedd Knoll neighbors,
I hope that you had a wonderful holiday season. I want you to know that we continue to communicate with Larry Comunale and PA DOT on the pending issues that have been raised at the meeting and through email. We have not forgotten your concerns, but I am sure you can agree that since it is winter, new plantings and gauging the success of existing plantings is still to be seen.
We recently received the following from PA DOT that I think will help communicate where PA DOT is with regard to 202.
Dear U.S. 202 Parkway Task Force Member,
Now that the U.S. 202 Parkway is open to traffic, not surprisingly, we are receiving questions, comments, compliments, and complaints about various aspects of the new road. The topics include signing, traffic signals, noise, landscaping, bicycle lanes, etc. The Department will provide timely and consistent responses to our customers as it relates to their questions or concerns. As with any new roadway, there is period of adjustment for motorists and residents as drivers seek to find their preferred route.
We appreciate your patience as we adjust to the changing traffic patterns along the Parkway and its surrounding areas. We are extremely pleased to have the new Route 202 open to enhance traffic flow in Bucks and Montgomery counties. As always, you can contact me, members of my staff at District 6 who worked on the Parkway (Brian Early, Madeleine Fausto) or staff at Michael Baker in Horsham (Eric Frary) if you need information or assistance in handling questions about the new roadway.
Sincerely,
Les Toaso
Les is PENNDOT District 6 administrator. Also, if you have not used the new road, I suggest you try it out. We are getting excellent feedback that traffic is moving much better through our generally congested area. I hope you find that as well.
Thanks for writing.
Kate
