NEWTOWN TWP, PA — The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) has announced that construction will persist on Route 3 (West Chester Pike) in Newtown Township, Delaware County, as part of a local safety enhancement initiative. The project aims to improve road safety and infrastructure along this vital thoroughfare.
From Monday, November 4, through Friday, November 8, motorists should prepare for single-lane closures in both directions on Route 3, specifically between Boot Road and Bryn Mawr Avenue. The scheduled work, operating daily between 9:00 AM and 3:00 PM, includes essential signal upgrades, sidewalk reconstruction, and landscaping efforts to enhance the area’s safety and aesthetic appeal.
PennDOT advises drivers to anticipate travel delays and plan accordingly when navigating through the construction zone. The lane closures are expected to cause significant traffic congestion, and travelers are urged to allow extra time for their commutes. With the realization that roadwork can disrupt daily routines, PennDOT remains committed to minimizing inconvenience while ensuring the project’s timely completion.
All construction activities are contingent on favorable weather conditions, and adjustments to the schedule may occur based on the forecast. Motorists are encouraged to stay informed about real-time road conditions and potential detours by consulting the MyChesCo Traffic Center, which provides up-to-date traffic reports and alerts.
