OHIO TOWNSHIP, Aug. 2 – State Rep. Arvind Venkat, D-Allegheny, announced that Ohio Township received a $248,666 state grant to enhance community safety.
The funds will be implemented to modernize traffic signal equipment at the intersection of Mount Nebo Road and Arndt Road in the township.
“Traffic lights are an absolute necessity when it comes to regulating the safe flow of vehicles and pedestrians every day,” Venkat said. “Securing dollars to help ensure these essential pieces of infrastructure function properly is an investment in the health and well-being of Ohio Township residents and visitors alike.”
Ohio Township is one of 73 Pennsylvania municipalities receiving a total of $30 million in Green Light-Go grants. The program, facilitated by the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation, awards monies to communities for the purpose of improving congestion and traffic flow. By upgrading to newer technologies in detection, traffic signals are better equipped to respond to real time traffic demand.
