Yellow Springs Road will be closed and detoured over North Valley Road, East Swedesford Road and Route 29 (Morehall Road) during overhead bridge work (9 a.m. – 3 p.m.).  Local access will be maintained up to the construction zone. 

Motorists are advised to allow extra time when traveling through the area; to avoid delays seek alternate routes. The work is weather permitting and the schedule is subject to change.

The work is part of the Turnpike Commission’s project to construct an all-electronic (E-ZPass only) interchange at Route 29, to be designated as Exit #320 when it opens in December. Earlier this year, crews erected steel beams for the new westbound on and off ramps and eastbound off-ramp where it crosses the local road. As crews set reinforcing steel and pour the concrete riding surfaces for the three structures, iron workers are finishing placement of deck beams for the ramp bridges over Atwater Drive and for the eastbound off-ramp bridge over Yellow Springs Road. Bridge deck construction will continue through the summer.

Travel advisories and project related construction updates will be posted on the project website as needed at www.paturnpike.com/constructionprojects/r29ramp.

STATE ROUTE 29: 

The southbound right lane will be temporarily closed from Atwater Dr. (1000’ south) to Flat Road (9 a.m. – 3 p.m.).

HOWELLS ROAD:

No further road restrictions are required at this time.

All work is weather permitting and the contractor’s schedule subject to change.
