Saw-Cutting Work Underway In Middletown Twp.

MIDDLETOWN TOWNSHIP, PA —Route 213 is undergoing saw-cutting work by PennDOT crews this week.

The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation said that paving and saw-cutting operations are planned this week on state highways in Bucks and Montgomery counties under a $14.9 million project to upgrade stormwater management facilities on more than 90 state highways across the five-county Philadelphia region.

Motorists are advised of lane closures through Friday, March 15, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.:

• Route 213 (Old Lincoln Highway) between Woodbourne Road and Wheeler Way in Middletown Township for saw-cutting.

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

The work is weather-dependent.

Highway Materials, Inc. of Flourtown, Montgomery County, is the general contractor on this project, which is financed with 100 percent state funds.

Motorists can check conditions on more than 40,000 roadway miles, including color-coded winter conditions, by visiting www.511PA.com. 511PA, which is free and available 24 hours a day, provides traffic delay warnings, weather forecasts, traffic speed information, and access to more than 1,000 traffic cameras.
