Lanes On I-95, I-295 To Close For Roadwork

Westbound lanes on Interstate 295 and southbound lanes on Interstate 95 in Bucks County will be closed next week for concrete patching work.

There will be double-lane closures during the nighttime and single-lane closures during the daytime, from Monday, Aug. 12 through Sunday, Aug. 18, PennDOT announced. The double-lane closures will be from 7 p.m.-5 a.m. and the single-lane closures will be from 5 a.m.-7 p.m.

They'll be between the Rt. 413 (Bristol) and Academy Road interchanges.

The patching is part of a project to repair and resurface 13 miles of the interstates in Bensalem, Bristol, Middletown and Lower Makefield township, according to PennDOT.

Motorists are encouraged to allow extra time when traveling through the area, because backups and delays are expected to occur. All scheduled activities are weather dependent.
