Bustleton Pike Roadwork To Last A Week

LOWER BUCKS COUNTY, PA — PennDOT said that overnight milling and daytime utility work will take place this week on a stretch of Bustleton Pike.

The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation said that resurfacing operations are planned this week on a state highway in Bucks County under ongoing contracts to repair, resurface, and improve more than 240 miles of state highways across the five-county region.

Weather permitting, drivers are advised of the following travel restrictions:

• Monday, Oct. 19, through Friday, Oct. 23, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. and from 7 p.m. to 5 a.m. the following morning, a periodic lane closure with flagging will be in place on Bustleton Pike between Route 232 (Second Street Pike) and Bristol Road in Northampton Township for nighttime milling and daytime utility work.

Drivers are advised to allow extra time when traveling through the work area because backups and delays will occur.

Under these resurfacing and improvement projects, PennDOT’s contractors are repairing, milling, and repaving state highways with new asphalt pavement that will seal roadways and provide motorists with a safer and smoother riding surface.
