Board authorizes PennDOT traffic signal agreement for joint‑use path project
Summary
The board approved a traffic‑signal and joint‑use path agreement required by PennDOT, adopting a resolution authorizing officers to sign and moving the project forward after a voice vote.
Staff asked the board to approve a traffic‑signal agreement required by PennDOT to continue permitting for a proposed joint‑use path. The board discussed related maintenance responsibilities and existing agreements for nearby signals; staff said PennDOT would remove signal permits once signals were removed and that the township's existing maintenance agreement identifies who to call if issues arise.
"In order to move forward with our Joint use path, we need a motion to approve this agreement, and the approval includes adoption of a resolution saying that authorized officers can sign," a board member said as the board prepared to act. A motion to approve the agreement and adopt the resolution was made, seconded and approved by voice vote.
Board members asked staff to monitor whether PennDOT or other parties later inspect signal functionality and noted the township will respond if issues materialize; otherwise the status quo remains.
