Bucks County commuters should brace for a carmageddon of sorts next week when construction work reduces travel lanes across one of the busiest toll bridges in the region.
On Friday the Delaware River Joint Toll Bridge Commission issued a “severe travel warning” for the Scudder-Falls Toll Bridge which connects Bucks County and Mercer County, New Jersey.
The two New Jersey-bound travel lanes will be narrowed to a single lane for I-295 commuters on Wednesday morning during peak commuting hours, the commission said in a press release. The closures are expected to last from 5 a.m. to noon.
Travel from New Jersey into Pennsylvania at the Scudder-Fall Bridge will not be impacted.
