LOWER MAKEFIELD – Scudder Falls Bridge Replacement Project construction activities are expected to necessitate a daytime closure/detour of PA Route 32/River Road in the vicinity of the Scudder Falls Toll Bridge next Thursday.

The road closure is scheduled to be in effect on both directions of Route 32/River Road from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. Thursday, October 8.
Affected traffic will be diverted around the closed section of roadway via nearby Main Street/Taylorsville Road from East Afton Avenue to the south and Woodside Road to the north. A detour map is attached to this advisory. The travel restriction will not impact traffic on I-295 or the Scudder Falls Toll Bridge.
