Possible Delays Expected on PA Turnpike and I-95 Tonight 

Nighttime traffic paces planned on I-276 and I-95 in Bucks County. 

BUCKS COUNTY, PA – The Pennsylvania Turnpike Commission advises motorists traveling eastbound and westbound on the PA Turnpike (Interstate 276) and motorists approaching Interstate 95 (I-95) northbound and southbound, in the area of the Levittown/Bristol Interchange (Exit 42) to be prepared for slow-moving traffic paces on Friday, June 28 from 12 a.m. until 5 a.m.  

There will be intermittent, 15-minute traffic paces in this area.  The slow-moving traffic paces are necessary for the protection of motorists and workers so crews can safely perform bridge repairs. The bridge, which carries I-95 traffic over East Penn Railroad, is at milepost 42.35, just east/north of the Levittown/Bristol Interchange, Exit 42. This is the sixth of eight traffic paces for this bridge rehabilitation project, which aims to be complete by November 2024.  

During the slow-moving traffic paces, Turnpike maintenance and state police vehicles will restrict Turnpike traffic to a speed of 20-25 miles per hour. Motorists traveling in these directions on I-276 and I-95 in Bucks County are encouraged to plan travel accordingly. 

Pennsylvania State Police and Turnpike personnel will be positioned at the impacted areas to assist drivers. Changeable message signs will also provide information. Work schedules are subject to change based on weather conditions.
