WEST BRANDYWINE TWP, PA — Drivers in western Chester County should prepare for a lengthy detour beginning later this month as utility improvement work forces the closure of a section of Reeceville Road in West Brandywine and East Brandywine townships.
At a Glance
- Roads Affected: Reeceville Road
- Dates: June 29-Sept. 25, 2026
- Times: 24 hours a day, 7 days a week
- Reason: Utility improvements
West Brandywine Township announced that Reeceville Road will be closed between Swinehart Road and Bollinger Road beginning Monday, June 29, and continuing through Friday, Sept. 25, weather permitting.
During the closure, drivers will be directed to use Route 82 (Manor Road), Route 322 (Horseshoe Pike), and Bollinger Road to travel around the work zone.
Local access will be maintained throughout construction, but motorists should expect delays and increased traffic along the detour route. Plan extra time for trips through the area and seek alternate routes when possible, especially during peak travel periods.
The closure is necessary to allow utility improvement work to be completed safely along the corridor.
Because the project is scheduled to last nearly three months, residents and commuters who regularly use Reeceville Road may want to adjust travel plans in advance and familiarize themselves with the posted detour.
