PennDOT has announced the following weather-dependent road projects that could affect drivers in the greater Chadds Ford area from May 6 through May 10. Motorists are urged to allow extra time traveling through one of the construction zones. Work schedules are subject to change.
• The widening of Route 1 continues. From Tuesday, May 14 through Monday, June 3, motorists should expect traffic delays because of a daytime lane closure on the northbound side of Route 1 between Greenwood Road and Orchard Avenue. This is part of the $10.4 million to add a third lane in both directions between Greenwood Road and the Kennett Oxford bypass.
• Bridge maintenance will force a daytime road closure of Westtown Thornton Road S in Thornbury Township, Chester County from May 6-10. There will be a detour between Street and Dilworthtown roads.
• Stormwater improvements will cause daytime lane closures on southbound Route 202 between Route 1 and Hillman Drive from Monday, ay 6 through Friday, May 10.
• Construction is underway on a $15.2 million project to replace the South Creek Road bridge over the Brandywine between Chadds Ford and Pennsbury townships. Work is expected to continue through fall 2025. South Creek Road will be closed 1,200 feet south of Bullock Road and 1.1 miles north of Cossart Road. During the closure, motorists are directed to use U.S. 1, Route 52, Center Meeting Road, and Delaware State Route 100 (Montchanin Road). Bicyclists traveling Bike Route L will be directed to use Bullock Road, Ring Road, Ridge Road, and Delaware State roadway Smithsbridge Road.
• 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.
