King of Prussia, PA – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced today that pipe replacement and road repair are scheduled on Palmers Mill Road in Marple Township, Delaware County, as part of a project to address stormwater management on over 90 state highways in Bucks, Chester, Delaware, and Montgomery counties.
Motorists are advised of the following travel restriction:
- Thursday, July 27, through mid-August, a 24/7 road closure is scheduled on Palmers Mill Road between Route 252 (Newtown Street Road) and Martins Run Road. During the closure, motorists are directed to use Route 252 (Newtown Street Road), Cedar Grove Road and Route 320 (Sproul Road)
Local access will be maintained up to the construction zone. Motorists are advised to allow extra time when traveling near the work area because backups and delays will occur. The schedule is weather dependent.
Highway Materials, Inc of Flourtown, Montgomery County, is the general contractor on this $14.9 million project, which is financed with 100 percent state funds.
Motorists can check conditions on more than 40,000 roadway miles by visiting www.511PA.com. 511PA, which is free and available 24 hours a day, provides traffic delay warnings, weather forecasts, traffic speed information and access to more than 1,000 traffic cameras.
