Lower Southampton Library Book Sale Starts Today
Feasterville Trevose, PA · May 7, 2026
Happy Thursday — the sun is finally sticking around for the afternoon, just in time for the library’s big spring book sale kickoff. If you’re heading toward the Turnpike overpass today, leave a few extra minutes for the inspection crews working on Bustleton Pike.
📰 The Lead
The Lower Southampton Township Board of Supervisors met last night to finalize the plans for the upcoming summer concert series at Playwicki Farm. This year, the township is expanding the lineup to include two additional dates in July, responding to record-breaking attendance last season. Officials also discussed a proposed sidewalk expansion project along a stretch of Philmont Avenue to improve pedestrian safety for residents walking to the nearby train station. While the funding for the sidewalks is still being debated, the consensus is that the increased foot traffic necessitates a more permanent solution than the current gravel shoulders. Expect a formal vote on the construction timeline during the next public session later this month.
