Westbound drivers will face a separate lane closure between Troutman Road and Royersford Road from 8 p.m. until 6 a.m. the following morning.

PennDOT said backups and delays are expected. Drivers should plan extra time, remain alert through the work zone and consider alternate routes when possible. The schedule is weather dependent.

The restrictions are part of a $6.2 million pavement preservation project covering 4.4 miles of U.S. 422. Work includes milling, a new bituminous overlay, pavement markings, edge-line rumble strips, and base repairs where needed.
