Reading, Pa. — Aug. 19, 2024 — Today, PennDOT announced $1,525,000 in Multimodal Transportation Fund grant funding for CG Broadcasting LLC to support a major redevelopment project in Spring Township.
The funding will support a series of transportation infrastructure and traffic improvements at the intersection of Route 222, Broadcasting Road, North Meridian Boulevard, and Paper Mill Road in Spring Township, aiding the construction of a mixed-use development in the area. The improvements include the addition of new traffic lanes, modification of existing turning lanes, installation of new stop signs, restriping of current roadways, and the establishment of a site driveway.
State Sen. Judy Schwank (D-Berks), who endorsed CG Broadcasting LLC’s application for funding, applauded the award and said it’s a sign of Berks County’s positive trajectory.
“This is an exciting project for Berks County that will breathe new life into an area long targeted for redevelopment,” Schwank said. “Developers are recognizing the potential in Berks County, and key investments made by the commonwealth are helping move these meaningful projects forward. I’m proud to back this initiative and thankful that PennDOT recognized the merits of this proposal.”
