Traffic change planned this week on Cornwall Road at Wilhelm Avenue

Traffic on Cornwall Road is expected to be diverted this week as part of a project to realign the intersection of Cornwall with Wilhelm Avenue and eliminate a dogleg with York Street.

The work zone is in both Lebanon Township and North Cornwall Township, according to a June 3 release from the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation. The intersection is heavily used by motorists traveling to and from the city, the Veterans Administration Medical Center, Lebanon Plaza Mall, the Lebanon Expo Center, Route 72, a major healthcare complex, and the Lebanon High School campus.

H&K Group Inc. of Skippack is the contractor for this $1,842,599 project.
