The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced PECO Energy will be performing utility construction on Providence Road in Media Borough and Nether Providence Township, Delaware County, beginning Monday, Jan. 6.
Motorists are advised of the following travel restriction:
Monday, Jan. 6, through Wednesday, April 2, , from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., Providence Road will be closed and detoured weekdays between Worrall Street and Locust Lane. During the closure, passenger vehicles will be directed to use Baltimore Avenue, Manchester Avenue, and Wallingford Avenue. Large trucks will be directed to use Baltimore Avenue/Baltimore Pike, and Route 320 (Cedar Lane/Swarthmore Avenue/Chester Road).
Local access will be maintained up to the work zone. Motorists are advised to allow extra time when traveling near the work area because backups and delays will occur. All scheduled activities are weather dependent.
PECO Energy will complete this project under a PennDOT Highway Occupancy Permit.
