Crews will also be removing vegetation on southbound Route 1 in Kennett Township, work that will result in intermittent lane closures between Route 82 and Newark Road. Crews will be working on Monday, Aug. 10 through Thursday, Aug. 14, from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Surface repairs on Route 926 in East Marlborough Township will necessitate lane restrictions between Route 52 and Wollaston Road from Monday, Aug. 10, through Friday, Aug. 14. Crews are scheduled to work from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m.

Smithbridge Road in Chadds Ford and Concord townships will be the site of utility and electrical work, milling and paving, and pipe repair this week.

The pipe repair will necessitate closure between Concord and Bethel roads from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Monday, Aug. 17, and Tuesday, Aug. 18. A detour will be posted.
