UPPER CHICHESTER TWP, PA — Residents and commuters in Upper Chichester Township, Delaware County, should prepare for detours as HBO embarks on a project requiring the closure of Chichester Avenue. The popular cable network has obtained a PennDOT Highway Occupancy Permit to facilitate this temporary disruption.
The specified section of Chichester Avenue, nestled between Boothwyn Road and Mill Road, will be inaccessible from Tuesday, April 16, through Wednesday, April 17. The closures are scheduled for overnight hours, from 7:00 PM until 6:00 AM the following morning, minimizing impact during peak travel times but still likely to affect late-night and early-morning traffic flow.
During this two-night operation, motorists will be rerouted via Boothwyn Road, Bethel Road, and Mill Road. These alternative routes are expected to handle the diverted traffic, but drivers are advised to allocate additional travel time to navigate around the work zone. Local authorities and HBO project coordinators anticipate backups and delays despite the off-peak scheduling.
As with all projects of this nature, the road closure and subsequent activities are contingent upon favorable weather conditions. Both HBO and PennDOT are committed to ensuring minimal disruption and maintaining public safety throughout the filming process.
Upper Chichester Township residents and those who frequent the area are encouraged to stay informed about the upcoming road closure and plan their travel accordingly. This brief intersection of Hollywood glamour with local infrastructure promises to be an interesting, albeit temporary, change of pace for the community.
