King of Prussia, PA – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced today that bridge deck repair is scheduled on the Byberry Road bridge over CSX railroad in Philadelphia.
Motorists are advised of the following travel restriction:
- Monday, June 24, through late July, Byberry Road will be closed 24/7 between Evans Street and Worthington Road. During the closure, motorists are directed to use U.S. 1 (Roosevelt Boulevard), Southampton Road, and Worthington Road.
This work involves replacing the bridge's asphalt overlay, as well as deck steel repairs. A full Byberry Road bridge replacement project is anticipated to be advertised for construction in late 2024 or early 2025. Traffic flow is expected to be maintained during the future bridge replacement project.
