TREDYFFRIN TOWNSHIP, PA — PECO will be improving the local electric distribution system in Tredyffrin Township for the next several months, and the work will disrupt the Avon Road area.

According to PECO, a $345,000 infrastructure investment project in Tredyffrin will last from April to July.

PECO said the project aims to help the local infrastructure withstand more frequent and damaging storms, improve reliability by reducing the frequency of outages that cannot be prevented, and support the adoption of cleaner energy resources such as solar and electric vehicles.

New equipment, including pad-mount transformers could be installed or replaced as necessary. These devices are necessary to improve reliability throughout neighborhoods and require several feet of clearance to allow for future maintenance.

The work will be performed by PECO crews and qualified PECO contractors.

PECO officials said they have developed a plan to minimize direct customer impact as much as possible and to complete the project in a safe and timely manner.

Crews may need to temporarily interrupt service to safely complete some of this work. PECO said it will work with local residents to ensure they are informed in advance of our activities and any planned interruptions.
