Aqua Pennsylvania to Restrict Butler Avenue Weekdays for Utility Replacement in Chalfont Borough

King of Prussia, PA – Aqua Pennsylvania is planning weekday lane restrictions with flagging on Butler Avenue between Skyline Drive and Bristol Road in Chalfont Borough, Bucks County, on Wednesday, November 4, through April, from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM, for water main replacement, the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced today.

Motorists are advised to allow extra time when traveling through the work area because backups and delays will occur. The schedule is weather dependent.
