Trail Construction on Ellis Road To Last A Month

MIDDLETOWN TOWNSHIP, PA — Trail construction will begin Monday on Ellis Road and will last all month, PennDOT said.

The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation said the construction is planned under a local safety improvement project.

Drivers are advised of the following travel restriction:

• Monday, April 7, through Wednesday, April 30, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., a weekday lane closure with flagging is scheduled on Ellis Road between Fulling Mill Road and Woodbourne Road for tree-clearing operations.

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.
