PennDOT Invites Public to Comment on U.S. 1 Improvement Project in Middletown Twp, Langhorne Manor, Langhorne Boro

PennDOT, in cooperation with the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), will conduct a Public Hearing on Wednesday, December 10, 2025, for the upcoming U.S. 1 Section RC3 Project, to improve safety and congestion along a 2.7-mile section of U.S. 1 in Middletown Township and Langhorne Manor and Langhorne boroughs, Bucks County.

The hearing will be conducted as part of the 45-day comment period on the Environmental Assessment (EA). The public review and comment period will begin Wednesday, November 19, and end on Friday, January 2, 2026.

The EA analyzes potential environmental impacts associated with the proposed transportation improvements pursuant to the requirements of the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) of 1969. The EA analyzes two alternatives, the Build Alternative and the No Build Alternative, and presents the potential impacts to various natural, cultural and community resources located within the project area and the proposed mitigation to offset those impacts. The Build Alternative, which meets the project needs while minimizing environmental impacts and addressing public and agency feedback, has been identified as the Preferred Alternative.

The EA and supporting technical files are being made available for public review via the project website at us1bucks.com.

The EA will also be available for review during normal business hours at the following locations:
