In 2007, the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation coordinated with federal and state agencies to obtain the approval to relocate the existing U.S. 202 route designation to the new U.S. 202 Parkway from just south of PA 63 (Welsh Road) to the PA 611 Interchange in Montogomery and Bucks counties. As shown on the U.S. 202 Redesignation Overview map, which can be found HERE, the existing streets signed today as U.S. 202 between Route 63 and Route 611 will revert back to their local street names only as shown on the colored road segments. 

If you have any questions or comments, please submit them through the U.S. Parkway website - www.us202-700.com
