Several Levittown-area towns will benefit from PennDOT’s “Green Light-Go” program.
The funding for the program, which was announced Monday, was provided through Act 89 of 2013. The transportation funding plan “establishes partnership agreements between municipalities and PennDOT through which municipalities request up to 50-percent funding for traffic-signal projects,” according to a PennDOT press release.
