Lane Closures Planned: Drivers Face Delays on Key Bucks County Roads
The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) has announced a series of weekday lane closures on two major routes in Middletown Township, Bucks County. These closures are scheduled from November 10, 2023, to December 1, 2023, as part of ongoing construction and maintenance efforts aimed at improving roadway conditions.
Langhorne-Yardley Road will experience periodic lane closures between Bridgetown Pike and Briggs Road, while Woodbourne Road will see similar disruptions between Kilburn Road and the entrance to Core Creek Park. Work will take place on weekdays from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM, during which flaggers will be present to manage traffic flow.
Drivers are advised to anticipate delays and to allow for extra travel time when navigating these areas. The improvements are part of a broader initiative by PennDOT to enhance roadway safety, ensure smoother driving surfaces, and maintain crucial infrastructure throughout high-traffic corridors in Bucks County.
Weather-Dependent Schedule
PennDOT has emphasized that all scheduled activities are subject to weather conditions. This precaution is critical to ensuring worker safety and the effectiveness of the construction efforts. As such, drivers are encouraged to stay informed about potential changes to the schedule.
