NEW PROJECT

NEW Landscape Improvements Coming Soon

I-76 Westbound into King of Prussia is about to get a lot more colorful. This fall, King of Prussia District will install a new landscape full of beautiful foliage that will brighten the experience of motorists at the DeKalb Pike off ramp. The new landscape will transform the current weeds and scrub trees into lavish plantings that include perennials, grasses and ornamental shrubs. The project will complement the plantings that the District installed across the street a few years ago and complete this “gateway” into King of Prussia for those traveling westbound on the Schuylkill Expressway.

Since 2011, King of Prussia District has partnered with PennDOT in their Adopt and Beautify Program. The program provides an opportunity for organizations to work with PennDOT to improve the landscapes adjacent to major thoroughfares. In the past nine years, King of Prussia District installed, and currently maintains, 19 different planting projects along PennDOT roads in KOP.

The new landscape was designed by the Landscape Architects at ThinkGreen, LLC. and will be installed by All Seasons Landscaping.
