Cranberry Township was awarded a $391,212 Multimodal Transportation Fund Program grant this week for improvements to the upcoming intersection of Brandt Drive and Executive Drive.

“This is in our constant effort of planning for the future of transportation infrastructure needs in the township,” township manager Dan Santoro said. “We applied for this grant to install a traffic signal at that intersection.”

State Sen. Elder Vogel, R-47th, announced Thursday that the Cranberry project was among the more than $5 million in state funding awarded in the region.
