The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) has announced weekday lane closures on two major routes in Middletown Township, Bucks County, affecting drivers from November 10 to December 1, 2023. These closures are part of ongoing roadway construction and maintenance aimed at improving safety and infrastructure.
From 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM on weekdays, drivers can expect periodic lane closures and flagging on Langhorne-Yardley Road between Bridgetown Pike and Briggs Road. Similar disruptions will occur on Woodbourne Road between Kilburn Road and the entrance to Core Creek Park.
Motorists are urged to plan for delays and allocate extra travel time when navigating these construction zones. PennDOT has emphasized that all scheduled work is dependent on weather conditions, which could impact the timeline of these improvements.
Purpose of the Roadwork
The ongoing construction and maintenance activities are part of a broader initiative by PennDOT to enhance roadway safety and ensure smoother driving surfaces throughout high-traffic corridors in Bucks County. These improvements are crucial for maintaining infrastructure and supporting the growing commuter population in the region.
