Route 213 Road Work May Cause Delays

Route 213 between Bristol Road and the Langhorne Borough Line in Northampton Township will be under construction.

The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation will continue its 14-month project to install and replace raised pavement markers on several Philadelphia area highways, including roads in Northampton Township.

Route 213 (West Maple Avenue) between Bristol Road and the Langhorne Borough Line in Northampton Township will be under construction on Thursday and Friday, Aug. 23 and 24 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.

During installation, crews will occupy one lane to conduct a slow-moving operation, a PennDot press release stated. Motorists are advised to be alert and to expect possible delays when driving near work crews.
