Pothole Repairs Coming To Lower Bucks Co. This Week

LOWER BUCKS COUNTY, PA — Maintenance crews will be repairing potholes and fixing deteriorated pavement in Lower Bucks County communities this week, PennDOT said.

The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation said the Commonwealth experiences a high volume of potholes each season due to temperatures fluctuating between freezing and mild, known as a rapid freeze-thaw cycle.

When PennDOT maintenance crews are not providing winter services, they will be focused on patching potholes until all areas are addressed.

Since January 1, PennDOT District 6 has received nearly 900 customer concerns regarding potholes across the five-county Philadelphia region, including Bucks County.

Weather permitting, motorists are advised that periodic lane closures and possible slowdowns will occur this week.
