King of Prussia, PA – Motorists will encounter lane restrictions on several state highways in the Philadelphia region for resurfacing operations as a part of several projects to repair and resurface more than 200 miles of state highway in Bucks, Chester, Delaware, Montgomery and Philadelphia counties, the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced today.

The work schedules and locations are:

Chester County

• Monday, August 24, through Friday, August 28, from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM, lane closures are scheduled on Route 82 (Manor Road) between Route 340 (Kings Highway) and Cedar Knoll Road in West Brandywine Township for milling and overlay operations; and

Montgomery County

• Monday, August 24, through Friday, September 4, weekdays, from 7:00 AM to 5:00 PM, lane closures are scheduled on Cobbs Creek Parkway/63rd Street between City Avenue and Woodland Avenue for line stripping and road repairs. 

Motorists are advised to allow extra time when traveling through the work areas because slowdowns will occur. All scheduled activities are weather dependent.

Work on these projects will be in accordance with Centers for Disease Control and state Department of Health guidance as well as a project-specific COVID-19 safety plan, which will include protocols for social distancing, use of face coverings, personal and job-site cleaning protocols, management of entries to the jobsite, special signage and relevant training.

Under these improvement projects, PennDOT is milling the existing roadway surface and repaving the state highways with new asphalt. The new pavement will seal the roadways and provide motorists with a smoother riding surface.
