King of Prussia, PA – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced today that base repair is planned on several state highways in Chester County, under multiple ongoing projects to repair and pave more than 200 miles of state highway across the Philadelphia region.
Motorists are advised of travel restrictions on Monday, December 2, through Friday, December 6, from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM, at the following locations:
- Homeville Road/Cream Road/Scroggy Road between Bryson Road and Pine Street in Upper Oxford and Lower Oxford townships and Oxford Borough.
- Street Road/Township Road between Forge Road and Dalton Road in Lower Oxford Township.
- Route 896 (Newark Road) between Homeville Road and Baltimore Pike in Upper Oxford Township.
- Edenton Road/Ewing Road between Route 896 (Newark Road) and Route 926 (Street Road) in Upper Oxford Township.
Drivers are advised to allow extra time when traveling through the work areas because backups and delays will occur. All scheduled activities are weather dependent.
Under these resurfacing and improvement projects, PennDOT’s contractors are repairing, milling, and repaving state highways with new asphalt pavement that will seal roadways and provide motorists with a safer and smoother riding surface.
Motorists can check conditions on major roadways including color-coded winter conditions, 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.
