You have a service road going from Hulmeville Ave to Hill Ave, is this for the driveway that belongs to the house (505 Hulmeville Ave) that is 3’ from the road. Wouldn’t it be cheaper just to buy the house then putting in a new road and upkeep for this road? This is the only house that does not have any yard between it and the road and would make sense to take it down.

Thank you for your input.  PennDOT works to reduce impacts to adjacent properties to the extent possible and must have engineering justification to acquire property.
