(Portions of this text were reprinted from township web sites.) The Sumneytown Pike/PA 309 Connector transportation improvement project passes through Franconia, Hatfield, Lower Salford and Towamencin townships (Montgomery County) and Hilltown Township (Berks County). Those townships each stand as a separate and distinct community, but share a common history that started before the Revolutionary War.
