The Pennsylvania Turnpike advises motorists that I-276 will be closed in both directions from 11:00 p.m. on October 20 to 6:00 a.m. October 21; and from 11:00 p.m. on October 21 to 5:00 a.m. to October 22 between the Bensalem Interchange, Exit 351, and the Delaware Valley Interchange, Exit 358, in Bristol Township, Bucks County.
The closure is necessary for the protection of motorists and workers so crews can safely erect bridge beams at milepost 356.5. Some single lane closures and traffic stoppages may occur October 20 and 21 during the night-time hours to prepare for the closures.
Pennsylvania State Police and Turnpike personnel will be positioned at the impacted interchanges to assist drivers. Changeable message signs will also provide information on closures and detours. Motorists are encouraged to plan travel accordingly. Work schedules are subject to change based on weather conditions.
