ROAD WORK - Taylor Drive
Upper Saucon Township has contracted with Livengood Excavators, Inc. to perform drainage improvements along a portion of Taylor Drive between Hay Street and Franklin Lane.
Work began on Thursday, October 13, and is expected to continue into December. Work will be performed between the hours of 7:00 AM and 4:00 PM, though work may occasionally extend until 7:00 PM weekdays, and possibly on Saturdays, when necessary.
Starting November 28th, Taylor Drive will be closed to through traffic from 8:30 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. on a daily basis, and through traffic will be detoured via Hay Street, Station Avenue, and Franklin Lane. After daily work is completed, the roadway will be restored to two-way traffic. There will certainly be traffic impacts on Taylor Drive because of this project and there will be delays for travelers. Motorists are encouraged to allow extra time and use caution when traveling through work zones.
