Pothole Repairs Planned This Week In Philly Region

PHILADELPHIA — PennDOT is planning pothole repairs on several state roads in Bucks and Montgomery counties this week.

The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation said that resurfacing operations are planned on 20 state highways in Bucks, Montgomery, Chester, Delaware, and Philadelphia counties, under several ongoing contracts to repair, resurface, and improve more than 240 miles of state highways across the five-county region.

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

All scheduled activities are weather-dependent.

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.

These are the roads scheduled for repairs this week:
