ROYERSFORD, Feb. 24 – Nearly $400,000 in state funding for transportation safety projects is coming to the 146th Legislative District through the disbursement of Multimodal Transportation Fund dollars by the Commonwealth Financing Authority, according to state Rep. Joe Ciresi, D-Montgomery.

“I am proud to have helped secure this critical funding for our district,” Ciresi said. “This money will make it safer to walk down Pottstown’s sidewalks and will enrich our local economy by drawing residents to a new development in Royersford Borough. These projects align with my focus as state representative: to increase public safety and to make our communities attractive places in which to reside for commuters and local professionals.”

The projects and funding are as follows:

$225,000 for streetscape improvements to Main Street and Walnut Street to support a new development located in Royersford Borough, Montgomery County.

$139,997 to rehabilitate sidewalks and install street lighting along Beech Street in Pottstown Borough, Montgomery County.

The Commonwealth Financing Authority was established in 2004 as an independent agency of the Department of Community and Economic Development to administer Pennsylvania’s economic stimulus packages.
