Paving Begins On Route 295 In Levittown Tuesday

Jul 16, 2023

LEVITTOWN, PA —Motorists should expect single-lane closures starting Tuesday on Route 295 for paving work, PennDOT said.

The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation said that paving will take place this week on Route 295 in Bucks County under a $44.6 million bridge improvement project to perform high-priority repairs on several structures on Routes 295 and 95.

Motorists are advised of the following travel restrictions:

Drivers are advised to allow extra time when traveling through or near the work areas because backups and delays will occur. All scheduled activities are weather dependent.

Repairs to the structures under this project include replacing rocker bearings, frozen sliding plate bearings, and deck expansion joints; cleaning and painting steel beams; repairing substructure concrete; and reconstructing bearing pedestals.

The project also includes the replacement of high mast light poles along the I-95 corridor in Philadelphia and Delaware counties.

Driscoll Construction Company, Inc. of Philadelphia is the general contractor on the project, which is financed with 100% federal 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.
