Rt. 263 In Warminster To Be Repaved Starting Next Week

Construction begins Monday on an improvement project to repair and resurface 12 miles of state highway in Bucks County, including Rt. 263 in Warminster Township.

There are some lane restrictions planned for the project.

Starting Monday, Aug. 14, from 7 p.m. to 5 a.m., lane restrictions with flagging are scheduled on Route 263 between County Line Road and Tennyson Drive in Warminster Township. The weeknight operation will continue through Friday, Sept. 15.

The contractor's schedule is dependent on the weather, PennDOT said.

Four other state highways are included in the project, which is expected to be completed in mid-November, state officials said.

Additional state highways scheduled for resurfacing under this contract include:

• Jacksonville Road between County Line Road and Little Neshaminy Creek in Ivyland Borough and Warminster and Northampton townships.
• Bristol Road between 2nd Street Pike and Bristol Road in Upper Southampton, Northampton and Lower Southampton townships.
• Bristol Road between Buck Road and Bristol Road in Lower Southampton Township.
• Langhorne-Yardley Road between Stony Hill Road and Yardley-Newtown Road in Lower Makefield Township.

Under this improvement project, PennDOT said it plans to mill the existing roadway and repave it with new asphalt that will have a smoother riding surface

The general contractor on the $4,403,892 project is Blooming Glen Contractors, Inc.
