Ciresi applauds nearly $247K secured for Traffic Management Center in Limerick Township

ROYERSFORD, Dec. 30 – State Rep. Joe Ciresi, D-Montgomery, applauded the $246,559 in grant funding from PennDOT’s Green Light Go program, which will be used to upgrade the Traffic Management Center in Limerick Township.

The Traffic Management Center, connected to Ridge Pike, actively monitors, synchronizes and manages traffic signals and cameras along the corridor to improve traffic flow and safety. It serves as a central hub for controlling field devices, providing real-time traffic data.

“With the new funding, our area will be better equipped to monitor and improve traffic conditions by optimizing flow and reducing congestion,” Ciresi said. “The funding will help enhance roadway safety and reduce response time to traffic incidents in our area. This is a needed investment in our roadway safety.”

Green Light-Go is a reimbursement grant program, and applicants are required to provide a 20% local match. Grants may be used for operational improvements such as LED technology, traffic signal retiming, developing special-event plans and monitoring traffic signals, as well as upgrading traffic signals to the latest technologies.
