Langhorne-Yardley Road Construction Returns After Roundabout Reopening

LOWER BUCKS COUNTY, PA — Construction has resumed on Langhorne-Yardley Road and Woodbourne Road under a $10.8 million project that will last late into the year, PennDOT said.

The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation said the project is to improve traffic congestion and safety on Langhorne-Yardley Road at the Bridgetown Pike and Woodbourne Road intersections in Middletown Township.

Drivers are advised of the following travel restrictions:

• Monday, Sept. 22, through Tuesday, Sept. 30, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., a weekday lane closure with flagging will be in place on Langhorne Yardley Road between Maple Point Drive and Bridgetown Pike.
• Monday, Sept. 22, through Tuesday, Sept. 30, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., a weekday lane closure with flagging will be in place on Woodbourne Road between Kilburn Road and Core Creek Park.

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 the contract, PennDOT’s contractor built a new single-lane roundabout at the Langhorne-Yardley Road and Bridgetown Pike. The roundabout reopened on Aug. 15.

Work also included realigning the roadway; installing upgraded traffic signals, stormwater management, ADA curb ramps, signage, and lighting; performing resurfacing operations; and improving mobility for pedestrians and bicyclists.

Improvements on Langhorne-Yardley Road and its intersection with Woodbourne Road will continue through late 2025, and include realigning the northern leg of Woodbourne Road and constructing auxiliary turn lanes on all four approaches.

The eastern leg of Woodbourne Road will also be widened to allow for a left turn lane on Langhorne-Yardley Road approaching Erica Drive.
