Bristol Township officials have been awarded nearly $700,000 for three traffic signal upgrade projects.
The PennDOT funds are through the Green Light-Go program, according to Gov. Tom Wolf’s office.

The money will be used to for the following upgrades:
- $252,184 for Traffic Signal Modernization along State Road at Cedar Avenue.
- $191,255 for Traffic Signal Modernization along Radcliffe Street at Randall Avenue.
- $226,194 for Traffic Signal Modernization along Mill Creek Parkway at Haines Road.
The township is still responsible for a 20 percent match on each of the three projects, which will total $837,040.
“When we talk about state dollars at work, these are the types of projects we like to see,” said Democratic State Rep. John Galloway, whose district is partly in Bristol Township. “Well-maintained infrastructure is an economic multiplier and increased safety at intersections cuts down on crashes, keeping families safe and driving down insurance costs.”

State Rep. Tina Davis, a Democrat who covers the majority of Bristol Township, said the awarding of the grant for the projects is an “example of the good public service we expect in our community.”
