I-95, I-295 Lane Closures at Night Next Week for Bridge Repair in Lower Bucks Co.

Interstate 95 and Interstate 295 motorists will encounter lane closures in both directions between the Route 413 (Bristol) and Business U.S. 1/Route 413 (Penndel/Levittown) interchanges in Bristol and Middletown townships, Bucks County on Monday, April 25, through Friday, April 29, from 7:30 PM to 5:00 AM the following morning for construction activities under a project to perform high-priority repairs on 13 structures on Interstate 95, I-295 and Interstate 476 in Philadelphia, Bucks and Delaware counties, the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced this week.

Motorists are advised to allow extra time when traveling through the work area because backups and delays will occur.

Repairs to the 13 structures include replacing rocker bearings, frozen sliding plate bearings and deck expansion joints; cleaning and painting steel beams; repairing substructure concrete; and reconstructing bearing pedestals.

In addition, the project includes the replacement of 24 high mast light poles along the I-95 corridor in Philadelphia and Delaware counties.

Driscoll Construction Company, Inc. of Philadelphia is the general contractor on the $39.4 million project, which is financed with 100 percent federal funds. Construction is expected to finish in spring 2024.
