Peters Township Lands Grant For Connector

Peters Township Council moved quickly through their agenda on Monday night. The highlight of the meeting was authorizing the acceptance of a grant from the Washington County Redevelopment Authority for $160,000. The matching grant will allow the development of a connector to allow people using Arrowhead Trail to gain access to the new Rolling Hills Park. Phase one of the park’s development is going out to bid this week, and the connector will be part of that development. At the other end of the park, the realignment of East McMurray Road is going on. The realignment is in place and paving is expected to begin shortly. Township Manager Paul Lauer says the project is on budget and on time. The brand new intersection with a traffic signal will be complete in January 2021.
