From 476 south (and the Schuylkill expressway)
Take 476 to the Lima/Springfield exit. This is the exit after the "Rt. 3/Newtown Sq." exit. Be careful, because a mile before the exit, another lane opens for trucks to climb the hill. Don't get into this far right lane. Stay in the "middle" lane. At the top of the hill, the far right lane ends.
When you exit, there will be a traffic light at the bottom of the ramp. Go STRAIGHT through the light, to the next traffic light (very short distance). Make a LEFT at this second light. There is one more light to this 'clover leaf', go STRAIGHT through it.
Now that you completed the clover leaf, you will be merging into the Route 1 North traffic. Merge into the middle lane. The right lane is marked Sproul Road. You DON'T want this, you want the lane marked Philadelphia. There is a traffic light just as you merge; this is in front of the Marshall's shopping center. Stay straight through the light, go under the overpass, come out of the overpass to another traffic light. Go STRAIGHT through this light and IMMEDIATELY get into the RIGHT LANE, to turn RIGHT at the next light.
This intersection is SPRINGFIELD ROAD. There is a gas station on the right corner. MAKE THIS RIGHT onto Springfield Road.
