U.S. 1 North Ramp to Penndel/Business U.S. 1 to Close Thursday Night for Construction in Bucks County

The ramp from northbound U.S. 1 to Business U.S. 1 at the Penndel/Business U.S.1 Interchange in Bensalem Township, Bucks County, will be closed and detoured on Thursday, January 13, from 11:00 PM to 5:00 AM the following morning for utility construction, the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced today.
 
Motorists normally using the ramp will be detoured north on U.S. 1 to the Maple Avenue Interchange, then left on Route 213 back to Business U.S. 1.
 
Motorists are advised to allow extra time when traveling near the work area. All scheduled activities are weather dependent. 
 
The utility work is part of PennDOT’s $110.8 million contract to reconstruct and widen U.S. 1, replace two bridges, and improve the Neshaminy, and Penndel/Business U.S. 1 interchanges.
