​King of Prussia, PA - The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced today that PECO Energy will be performing utility construction on Paoli Pike in Willistown Township, Chester County.

Motorists are advised of the following travel restriction:
  • Monday, July 29, through Friday, December 27, from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM, Paoli Pike is scheduled to be closed and detoured between Frazer Avenue and Grubb Road. During the closure, motorists will be directed to use Paoli Pike, U.S. 30 (Lancaster Avenue), Valley Road, and Devon Road.
Local access will be maintained up to the work zone. Motorists are advised to allow extra time when traveling near the work area because backups and delays will occur. All scheduled activities are weather dependent.

PECO Energy will complete this project under a PennDOT Highway Occupancy Permit.
