Eastern Pennsylvaniaâs first diverging diamond intersection will open to motorists Monday morning at Routes 222 and 322 in Ephrata Township.
The $10.9 million project creates a traffic pattern that aims to minimize the ways drivers enter or leave the path of other drivers, referred to as âconflict points.â
Conflict points are the most common sites of car crashes, according to the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation. A prime example is when a car turns left across oncoming traffic and gets T-boned, said Dave Thompson, a spokesman at PennDOT.
âThe key safety improvement is youâre removing your conflict point, which is your left turns ⦠because we actually put you on the other side of the road,â PennDOT project manager Dave Fratangeli said when the agency unveiled the plan in 2017.

The supervisors balked at the request last month, and said, somewhat pointedly, that they thought it was a lot to ask for when Upper Frederick Township, where 17 percent of the camp is located, was only being asked to contribute $1,200.
