Stormwater Improvements Planned On County Line Road

LOWER BUCKS COUNTY, PA —Stormwater improvements are planned this week on a stretch of County Line Road that will mean lane closures for drivers, PennDOT said.

The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation said that stormwater improvements are scheduled on several state highways in Bucks, Chester, and Montgomery counties under a $14.9 million project to upgrade stormwater management facilities on more than 90 state highways across the five-county Philadelphia region.

Motorists are advised of the following travel restrictions:

• Monday, Sept. 30, through Friday, Oct. 4, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., a lane closure is scheduled on County Line Road between Princeton Road and Route 232 (Second Street Pike/Huntingdon Pike) in Upper Southampton and Lower Moreland townships in Bucks and Montgomery counties for stormwater replacement.
• Monday, Sept. 30, through late October, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., a weekday lane closure is scheduled on Route 332 (Newtown Richboro Road) between West Hanover Street and Rock Way/Spring Garden Mill Drive in Newtown and Northampton townships, Bucks County, for stormwater replacement.

Drivers are advised to allow extra time when traveling through the work areas because backups and delays will occur.

The schedule is weather-dependent.

Highway Materials, Inc. of Flourtown, Montgomery County, is the general contractor on this project, which is financed with 100 percent state funds.
