Drivers should expect backups and delays when approaching the work area. Plan extra time or seek an alternate route when practical, particularly if traveling through Cheltenham Township during the overnight hours.

The work is part of PennDOT’s resurfacing and highway improvement program. Contractors are repairing, milling and repaving state highways with new asphalt pavement designed to seal the roadway and provide a smoother driving surface.

All scheduled work is weather dependent and may be postponed or rescheduled.
