Neshaminy Creek To Peak At Noon Monday: Police

MIDDLETOWN TOWNSHIP, PA —The Neshaminy Creek is expected to peak at noon Monday, causing more potential flooding on township roads, police said.

The Middletown Township Police Department said Neshaminy Creek will peak at 12 feet (which is moderate flood stage) around noon so conditions will likely get worse for any roads or areas normally affected by the creek at this level of flood stage.

Due to heavy rainfall overnight, police also reported several road closures:

• Bridgetown Pike is closed between 413 and Langhorne-Yardley Road.
• Route 413 is closed at Bridgetown Pike.
• Trenton Road was closed between Woodbourne and Oxford Valley roads but is now open. (Police said they will be monitoring that throughout the morning.)
• The short stretch of Banks Road is closed.

There were no reported downed trees or power outages as of early Monday morning.

Police said they will monitor other areas as the day goes on and that there is a potential for other road closures.

Extra officers are working Monday to assist with any road closures or flood-related issues, police said.

Police ask motorists to be patient as traffic is extra heavy Monday morning due to road closures.

Anyone with flood-related issues should call the Middletown Township Police Department at 215-949-1000 or 911.
