Motorists are urged to allow extra time if they are traveling through one of the construction zones. Work schedules are subject to change.

• Beginning Monday, June 8, the bridge carrying West State Road over the west branch of Red Clay Creek will be closed and detoured between North/South Mill Road and Penns Manor Drive in Kennett Township and Kennett Square Borough. Work is expected to be completed in late August.

• Bridge replacement will close State Street in Kennett Square — between Mill Road and Penns Manor Drive — through Aug. 28.
