CRANBERRY TWP — Cranberry Township received roughly $100,000 in PennDOT grants to improve its traffic signal infrastructure.

Of the $15.6 million in Green Light-Go Grants to 50 municipalities announced by the state Wednesday, Cranberry will receive a total of $108,000 in three grants for traffic signal controller assemblies, signal communication network extensions and LED signal replacements.

Kelly Maurer, township director of public works, said the township's goal with the grants is to extend and improve its extant traffic signal infrastructure, which is already some of the most advanced in Pennsylvania.

“It's not for new signals, it's to make our system more efficient,” she said.
