Streets Department Announces Roadway Improvement Work to Begin in Lemon Hill on Monday, October 6

Philadelphia's Streets Department will start roadway improvement work in Lemon Hill on October 6, 2025, with a budget of $1. 5 million. This initiative will resurface 20,500 square yards and enhance sidewalks and ADA ramps to promote accessibility and safety for all users. The work will occur in phases, including milling, paving, and line striping, leading to temporary lane closures and no-parking restrictions until the end of November. Key improvements involve the installation of 12 ADA ramps, curb realignments, and trenching for water service lines.

The project will also address sidewalks along major streets, impacting Girard Avenue. Residents should regularly check for posted no-parking signage for updates. The timeline is subject to change based on weather conditions. The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation will also implement improvements along Girard Avenue as part of the broader initiative.
