Road Work Continues on Taylor Drive

Upper Saucon Township has contracted with Livengood Excavators, Inc. to perform drainage improvements along a portion of Taylor Drive between Hay Street and Franklin Lane.

Work began on Tuesday, October 11, and is expected to continue into November.  Work will be performed between the hours of 7 a.m. and 4 p.m., though work may occasionally extend until 8 p.m. week days, and possibly on Saturdays, when necessary.

Taylor Drive is tentatively scheduled to be closed to through traffic on Thursday, November 3, from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. 

Through traffic will be detoured via Hay Street, Station Avenue, and Franklin Lane.  During the remainder of the project’s daily work hours, there will be single-lane conditions along Taylor Drive, using flagmen and barricades. After daily work is completed, the roadway will be restored to two-way traffic.

There will certainly be traffic impacts on Taylor Drive because of this project and there will be delays for travelers. Motorists are encouraged to allow extra time and use caution when traveling through work zones.
