Water Main Replacement at Knapp Elementary School - Work Ongoing

North Penn Water Authority's contractor has begun the installation of the water main on Knapp Road starting at Norway Drive and ending at Clear Spring and Frederick Roads. The route runs along Knapp Road to the entrance of Knapp Elementary School at Valley Brook Drive, and continues to Frederick Road in Lansdale Borough and Montgomery Township.

The work is estimated to be completed by August 16th. This water main work is being completed in coordination with the North Penn School District to prevent impacting school operations.

Crews will be working in the area from 7:00 a.m. - 3:30 p.m., Monday through Friday. Traffic control will be in effect during main installation, and there may be lane restrictions in effect on Knapp Road for brief periods of time during the construction period. Emergency vehicles will have access to the area, and to the fullest extent possible, every effort will be made to keep open access to local residents. Once installed, the main will be flushed, sampled and then placed into service.

We thank you for your patience during this time.

Summer Events Continue!

If you missed out on this past Thursday's fabulous Elvis by Dean Garofolo performance, don't worry! There are more wonderful performers coming up!

As this Thursday is the July 4th Holiday, we will not be hosting a concert. Join us on Thursday, July 11th from 7PM- 8:15PM at Gazebo Park located behind the Township Building for a wonderful performance from The John Hoey Orchestra, playing authentic swing from the 1930's, 40's and 50's, including the sounds of Glenn Miller, Tommy Dorsey and Count Basie. The band also plays pure funk, R&B, and dance music from the 60's and 70's. Come out and celebrate summer with us!
