​King of Prussia, PA – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced today that the Pennsylvania Turnpike Commission is planning bridge construction on Newportville Road in Bristol and Bensalem townships, Bucks County, beginning Tuesday, December 3.

Motorists are advised of the following travel restriction:
  • Tuesday, December 3, through Friday, December 13, from 5:30 AM to 5:30 PM, Newportville Road will be closed and detoured weekdays between Zimmerman Lane and New Falls Road. During the closure, motorists will be directed to use Zimmerman Lane and New Falls Road. 
Local access will be maintained up to the work zone. Motorists are advised to allow extra time when traveling near the work area because backups and delays will occur. All scheduled activities are weather dependent.
