Street Road Resurfacing Begins This Morning
Feasterville Trevose, PA · May 12, 2026
Happy Tuesday—keep an eye out for the orange cones on Street Road today as the long-awaited repaving project finally kicks off near the Philmont Avenue intersection.
📰 The Lead
The Lower Southampton Township Board of Supervisors met last night to finalize the summer recreation schedule, but the big news for commuters is the start of the Street Road improvement project. PennDOT crews are mobilizing this morning to begin milling and paving between Philmont Avenue and Bustleton Pike. This stretch has been a point of contention for local drivers for months due to deep ruts and uneven surfaces. Work is scheduled primarily during daylight hours this week, so expect lane shifts and significant delays during the afternoon rush. Township officials are encouraging residents to use Brownsville Road or Bridgetown Pike as alternates to avoid the bottleneck near the shopping centers. The project is expected to wrap up by Friday, weather permitting.
