Butler Township is receiving $1.4 million in state funding to make safety improvements at the intersection of Whitestown Road, Hansen Avenue and Armco Drive.

State Rep. Marci Mustello, R-11th, said the Commonwealth Financing Authority awarded the funds to the township.

“These grants represent valuable investments in ensuring safety, accessibility and business growth in our area,” said Mustello. “The improvements will reduce the number of accidents, and prepare the area for further development of the Pullman Center Business Park.”

The township will use the money to construct two intersections adjacent to the business park.
