Embreeville update

Several residents who live near the proposed development at the former Embreeville Center in West Bradford and Newlin Townships are expressing concern that it would have a negative impact on roads (Strasburg Road and Route 162 in particular) and the rural character of the area. They are also concerned about its impact on the Brandywine River and the ChesLen preserve across the road.
Proposed for the site are 1,000 housing units and a shopping center. The heavily used playing fields and the PennDOT maintenance building would remain untouched. Twenty acres of the 280-acre site are in Newlin Township, including the sewage treatment plant on the south side of Embreeville Road and a wooded strip near the township building.
