The restrictions are part of a $6.2 million project to preserve and repair 4.4 miles of U.S. 422 in Limerick and Upper Providence townships.
Crews are milling the roadway, applying a new bituminous overlay, restoring pavement markings and reinstalling edge-line rumble strips. Base repairs will also be completed where needed.
Allan Myers Inc. of Worcester is the general contractor. The project is financed entirely with state funds.
