King of Prussia, PA – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced today that High Friction Surface Treatment (HFST) operations are planned on Worthington Mill Road in Wrightstown and Northampton townships, Bucks County.
Motorists are advised of the following travel restriction:
- Monday, July 15, through Friday, July 19, from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM, periodic lane closures are scheduled on Worthington Mill Road between Route 232 (Second Street Pike) and Swamp Road.
Drivers are advised to allow extra time when traveling through the work area because backups and delays will occur. All scheduled activities are weather dependent.
The HFST installation is designed to provide increased friction and grip on pavements in wet and dry conditions.
This work is part of the $4.5 million project to replace the Worthington Mill Road bridge over Neshaminy Creek, which was substantially completed on December 20, 2023.
Motorists can check conditions on major roadways by visiting www.511PA.com. 511PA, which is free and available 24 hours a day, provides traffic delay warnings, weather forecasts, traffic speed information, and access to more than 1,000 traffic cameras. 511PA is also available through a smartphone application for iPhone and Android devices, by calling 5-1-1, or by following regional X alerts.
