Flagging operations will direct traffic through active work zones, which may result in intermittent stoppages and delays.

Motorists should expect slow-moving traffic during daytime hours and plan extra time when traveling through the area. Consider alternate routes where possible to avoid congestion.

The project includes ongoing improvements to intersections, roadway alignment, and turn lanes, building on earlier work such as the installation of a roundabout at Langhorne-Yardley Road and Bridgetown Pike.

All scheduled work is weather dependent and expected to continue into early 2026.
