Pottstown's roads and crash patterns

US 422 runs along the river's north side as a busy expressway with short merge ramps, and its backups toward King of Prussia and Reading produce rear-end and merging crashes. Route 100 climbs through Pottstown with hills and signals, and High Street, the old main road, is a narrow, busy borough street with parked cars, buses and pedestrians. Route 724 and Route 663 serve the surrounding townships, with curves, farm traffic and limited shoulders. The river bridges funnel traffic into a few crossings. Winter ice on the hills, spring fog along the Schuylkill and heavy rain that floods low roads each play a part.
