What You Need to Know About Upcoming Road Repairs in Chester County

Road work - traffic alert

CHESTER COUNTY, PA — The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) has announced a planned series of base repair operations on several state highways in Chester County that will result in traffic restrictions next week.

The repair work, scheduled for Monday, December 2, through Friday, December 6, will take place from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM each day at multiple locations. Motorists traveling through the affected areas are advised to prepare for delays and consider alternate routes whenever feasible.

The specific roads slated for base repair include the following sections:

  • Homeville Road/Cream Road/Scroggy Road between Bryson Road and Pine Street within Upper Oxford and Lower Oxford Townships, as well as Oxford Borough.
  • Street Road/Township Road between Forge Road and Dalton Road in Lower Oxford Township.
  • Route 896 (Newark Road) spanning Homeville Road to Baltimore Pike in Upper Oxford Township.
  • Edenton Road/Ewing Road between Route 896 (Newark Road) and Route 926 (Street Road) in Upper Oxford Township.

During the scheduled work hours, PennDOT crews will conduct critical base repairs to address roadway foundation issues and improve the driving surface quality. These improvements are essential for maintaining the long-term safety and reliability of the county’s highway infrastructure.

Motorists traveling through the work zones should exercise caution, pay attention to construction signs, and allow for additional travel time. The closures and restrictions are likely to cause traffic backups and minor delays, especially during peak travel hours.

All planned work is contingent upon favorable weather conditions.
