2019 Road Project Winter Update

The winter season is upon us and the paving season has ended for now. The project is about half completed. Penndot does not want paving done after mid-December because weather conditions are too poor to properly pave roads with asphalt.

The roads on the North side of Route 1 have been paved and the driveways tied in. The roads and driveways on the South side are about 25% done.

Some residents have had their driveways milled but not tied into the street because the street has not had the wearing course installed. For those residents whose driveways have been milled, but not tied-in, any damage occurring to the edge of the driveway through the winter season will be repaired by contractor at no cost to the resident or Borough.

The contractor, General Asphalt Paving, will return in the spring to complete the project. We will send out an announcement to residents about a week in advance once we know when they plan to resume the work. Residents on those streets that will be closed to traffic for any extended time while the finish course is installed, will be notified a day in advance so they can make alternate parking arrangements.

If you have any questions, please contact Council Member Nick Pizzola at 215-375-2037 and he will be happy to answer any concerns you may have.
