BRISTOL TWP, PA — The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) has announced that PECO Energy will commence utility construction on State Road in Bristol Township, impacting local traffic patterns significantly. This essential construction work is set to begin on Monday, November 18, and is expected to continue through Tuesday, December 31.
During this period, State Road will be closed to through traffic on weekdays from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM, specifically between Cedar Avenue and River Road. To accommodate local traffic, a detour will redirect motorists via Cedar Avenue and River Road. The closure is necessary to facilitate the safe and efficient execution of utility construction tasks by PECO Energy, which will be conducted under a PennDOT Highway Occupancy Permit.
Local access will be maintained up to the work zone, ensuring that residents and businesses can reach their destinations. However, motorists are strongly encouraged to plan for additional travel time when navigating through or around the area, as traffic backups and delays are anticipated due to the detours and road closures. It is also important to note that all scheduled activities are weather dependent and may be subject to change.
As this construction progresses, drivers are advised to stay informed about current road conditions and potential delays by consulting the MyChesCo Traffic Center. By planning ahead, commuters can reduce inconvenience and contribute to the smooth flow of traffic in the area. The completion of this project is expected to enhance utility services and support the infrastructure needs of Bristol Township residents and businesses.
