Pedestrian Bridge Replacement Scheduled on Centre Avenue in Newtown Township, Newtown Borough, Bucks County
King of Prussia, PA – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced today that pedestrian bridge replacement is scheduled on the bridge carrying Centre Avenue over Newtown Creek in Newtown Township and Newtown Borough, Bucks County.
Motorists are advised of the following travel restriction:
- Monday, December 30, through Friday, January 17, Centre Avenue will be closed 24/7 between Sycamore Street and State Street. During the closure, motorists are directed to use Sycamore Street, Washing Avenue, and State Street.
Local access will be maintained. Drivers are advised to allow extra time when traveling near the work area because backups and delays will occur. All scheduled activities are weather dependent.
