The Pennsylvania Turnpike Commission (PTC) provides communications and connectivity for internet, voice and data for over 563 miles of roadway and nearly 700 sites and facilities. With communications needs increasing dramatically over the past two decades, the PTC is updating its fiber optic communications network.
STV is the prime designer on the widening and reconstruction of four miles of the Pennsylvania Turnpike from the Route 29 Interchange (MP 320) to the Valley Forge Service Plaza (MP 324) in Tredyffrin Township, located in Chester County. As part of this project, our team provided design and construction support, including fiber optic backbone relocation under the widened roadway configuration to maintain long-haul fiber communications for the PTC’s critical Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) and tolling network infrastructure.
