UPPER DARBY TWP, PA — Drivers in Delaware County should prepare for weekday detours beginning later this month as PECO Energy conducts utility improvement work along a section of Burmont Road in Upper Darby Township.
At A Glance

- Dates: Monday, March 23 – Friday, April 24
- Times: 9:00 AM – 3:00 PM (weekdays)

Weather permitting, Burmont Road will be closed to through traffic between Township Line Road and State Road while crews complete utility construction along the corridor.
