Jenkintown Borough has  been notified by PECO’s subcontractor Kehoe Construction, Inc., that Walnut Street , between West Avenue & Rodman Avenue  will have temporary lane closures from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM and Cheltena Avenue, between Cloverly Avenue & Walnut Street will be closed to through traffic from 7:00 AM to 3PM on Monday , January 18th. Walnut Street and Cheltena Avenue  closures (expected to be completed this week) will allow for the contractors to safely perform paving restoration of the trenches where the new gas lines were installed. The final paving of the roadway will take place in the spring time when the weather allows. The road will be repaved from curb to curb the entire length. The paving restoration and final paving costs are considered part of this project and are covered by PECO.

The trench restoration on the roads affected  will be completed over the next week. Final paving of these roads will take place in the spring time as well. 

Residents will continue to have access to their properties during this process.  If you do not reside on this road please take another route during these times to avoid disruption of your travels.
