The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced that flash flooding has forced the closure of four state highways in Bucks County.

The road closures are:

  • Route 32 (River Road) Woodside Road to Route 532 (General Washington Memorial Boulevard) in Upper Makefield and Lower Makefield townships;
  • Route 232 (Windy Bush Road) between Aquetong Road and Route 32 (River Road) in Solebury Township;
  • Route 532 (Washington Crossing Road) between Dolington Road and Taylorsville Road in Upper Makefield Township; and
  • Taylorsville Road between Woodside Road and Route 532 (Washington Crossing Road) in Lower Makefield and Upper Makefield townships.

During the closures, motorists will be directed to follow the posted detour routes. Local access will be maintained up to the closures.

The closures will remain in place until floodwaters from the Delaware River have receded and PennDOT can safely reopen the roadways.
