Major Upgrades Coming to the Bustleton and Street Road Intersection

Feasterville Trevose, PA · June 18, 2026

The humidity is settling in early today, but the breeze at Playwicki Farm should offer some relief by the time the sun starts to dip. If you are heading toward the township building this morning, you might notice the surveyors already out near the main crossroads.

📰 The Lead

The daily crawl through the intersection of Bustleton Pike and Street Road is finally getting a high-tech overhaul. During last night’s session, the Board of Supervisors greenlit a comprehensive modernization project for the township’s busiest junction. The plan moves beyond simple timing adjustments, introducing an adaptive signal system that uses real-time sensors to prioritize lanes with the heaviest backups.

For those who navigate this stretch on foot, the project includes the installation of high-visibility crosswalks and ADA-compliant pedestrian countdown timers, which have been a frequent request from residents living in the nearby apartment complexes. While the heavy machinery won't arrive until next month, preliminary utility marking begins this morning. This upgrade is the first major structural change to the intersection in over a decade, aimed at shaving minutes off the evening commute and reducing the frequent "fender benders" that plague the turn lanes.
