PennDOT has announced the following road projects, which are weather-dependent and could affect drivers in the greater Chadds Ford area during the week of March 12 through March 18. Motorists are urged to allow extra time if traveling through one of the construction zones. Work schedules are subject to change.

• Motorists should expect Cheyney Road to close between Concord Road and Saint Johns Drive in Concord Township on Monday, March 14, through Friday, March 18, from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., for pipe replacement. During the closure, Cheyney Road motorists will be directed to use Route 1, but local access will be maintained during the operation.

• Gas line installation will cause a periodic closure of Heyburn Road between Keepsake and Holly Tree lanes in Chadds Ford Township for an estimated one more week.

• Vegetation management will continue to cause daytime lane closures on several streets in East Marlborough Township through March 19. Those roads include E. Green Valley/Apple Grove Road, Wawaset Road, Upland Road Embreeville Road, and Unionville Road.

• From March 14-18, utility work will cause daytime lane closures on Gay Street between Darlington Road and Church Street in West Chester.

• Expect daytime lane closures on Route 202 between Watkin Avenue and Pyle Road in Concord Township from March 15-18 because of utility restoration.

• Storm damage also closed Embreeville Road Bridge over the West Branch over the Brandywine Creek in Newlin Township. That closure remains listed as indefinite.
