PennDOT has announced the following weather-dependent road projects that could affect drivers in the greater Chadds Ford area from Dec. 30 through Jan. 5Motorists are urged to allow extra time traveling through one of the construction zones. Work schedules are subject to change.

• Motorists should expect partial lane closures on N. High Street between Market and Gay streets in West Chester on Jan. 2 for Christmas lighting removal. Expect closures to last from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.

• Through Jan. 25, there will be weekday single-lane closures on Burrows Run Road in Kennett Township between Kennett Pike and Hillendale Road due to overhead work.

• Vegetation management will cause daytime lane closures on Route 52 in Pennsbury Township between Balmoral Drive and Fairville Road through Jan. 13.

• Work to replace the bridge that carries Smithbridge Road over Webb Creek in Concord Township is underway. The 96-year-old bridge has been closed since July 14, following a bridge inspection that determined structure deterioration. During construction, motorists will be directed to follow the existing detour using Bethel Road, Garnet Mine Road, Route 491, and northbound Route 202. The project is scheduled to finish in late April of 2024.

• Motorists should expect lane restrictions with a detour for trucks on Route 162 at its intersection with Route 82 in Newlin Township because of bridge repair. There is currently no date for completion.
