Rep. Zach Mako announced that a grant of $625,000 has been allocated to King's Business Park in Schnecksville for the construction of a two-lane roundabout. The funding is provided by the Multimodal Transportation Fund under the Commonwealth Financing Authority, which supports economic development and ensures a safe transportation system in the state.
"This area has been growing by leaps and bounds," Mako stated. "The roundabout will help keep existing traffic moving along with the additional traffic the planned business park will create. I’m pleased my advocacy for this project paid off as it will save motorists time."
The roundabout is planned for the intersection of routes 309 and 873. The business park, covering 12 acres, is set to feature an AutoZone, Wawa, and a medical office building.
The 183rd District includes Lowhill and North Whitehall townships and Slatington Borough in Lehigh County. It also covers Allen, East Allen, Lehigh, Moore (part) townships, and Bath, North Catasauqua, Northampton, and Walnutport boroughs in Northampton County.
