Harrisburg, PA – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) will install a new stop sign configuration on Wednesday, May 19, 2021, at the intersection of Hahnstown Road (Route 1051) and Glenwood Drive (Route 1049/T-670) in Ephrata Township, Lancaster County. Currently, motorists have stop signs on the northbound and southbound sections of Glenwood Drive. The new configuration will include stop signs on Hahnstown Road in the eastbound and westbound directions.

This new stop condition on Hahnstown Road will be marked by Stop Ahead signs with flashing amber lights, as well as flashing red lights on the new stop signs. The amber lights will remain in place for 30 days and the red lights will remain in place for 60 days, after which time, the flashing lights will be removed. In addition, there will be variable message boards (VMS) alerting motorists in both directions of the new stop condition on Hahnstown Road.

Motorists should be alert and drive with caution as they approach the intersection.
