Rockhill Drive In Bensalem To Close For Intersection Work

BENSALEM TOWNSHIP, PA — Intersection reconstruction will close Rockhill Drive and two U.S. Route 1 ramps from Friday, April 4 to Monday, April 7 under PennDOT's $116 million project to reconstruct, widen, and improve a three-mile section in Bucks County.

Rockhill Drive will be closed at Horizon Boulevard from 8 p.m. Friday, April 4 to 5 a.m. on Monday, April 7. The ramps from northbound U.S. 1 to Rockhill Drive and westbound Rockhill Drive to southbound U.S. 1 will also be closed.

Motorists on northbound U.S. 1 heading for the east side of Rockhill Drive will be detoured north on U.S. 1, exit at Penndel/Business U.S. 1, turn left onto southbound Old Lincoln Highway, turn left onto Bristol Road, and turn right onto Neshaminy Boulevard to access Rockhill Drive.

Motorists on northbound U.S. 1 heading for the west side of Rockhill Drive will be detoured north on U.S. 1, exit at Penndel/Business U.S. 1, and turn left onto southbound Old Lincoln Highway to access Rockhill Drive.

Motorists on westbound Rockhill Drive heading for southbound U.S. 1 will be detoured north on U.S. 1, exit at Penndel/Business U.S. 1, and turn left onto southbound Old Lincoln Highway to access the ramp to southbound U.S. 1.

Motorists are advised to allow extra time when traveling near the work area because significant backups and delays will occur. All scheduled activities are weather-dependent.

The work is part of PennDOT’s U.S. 1/RC2 contract that will reconstruct and widen U.S. 1 from south of the Rockhill Drive Interchange to north of the Penndel/Business U.S. 1 Interchange.
