Krueger announces over $500K for upgraded traffic signals

BROOKHAVEN, Aug. 4 – State Rep. Leanne Krueger, D-Delaware, today announced that Brookhaven Borough and Ridley Township have been awarded grants to upgrade traffic signals in their communities.

“Traffic signals help keep pedestrians, cyclists and drivers safe throughout our neighborhoods,” said Krueger. “The more efficient, well-timed and reliable they are, the safer are our residents. These funds will support projects that upgrade and modernize key intersections in both areas.”

The grants awarded in Krueger’s district include:

  • $168,686 to upgrade the signals at the intersection of Edgmont Avenue and Trimble Boulevard and the intersection of Edgmont Avenue and Whiteley Road in Brookhaven Borough.
  • $399,918.50 for traffic signal modernization at the intersection of Fairview Road and Jefferson Avenue in Ridley Township.

The funds were awarded as part of the Green Light-Go Program administered by the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation. This program funding may be used for traffic signal retiming; study and removal of unwarranted traffic-control signals; monitoring of traffic signal corridors; innovative technologies; installation, upgrade or maintenance of traffic signal communication systems; upgrade or installation of detection systems and controllers; modernization upgrades; implementation of intelligent transportation system applications; or to replace traditional or LED bulbs with new LED bulbs.
