The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation will repair and resurface more than 200 miles of state highways in Philadelphia and its collar counties over the next few weeks.

Motorists in Bucks, Chester, Delaware, Montgomery and Philadelphia counties will experience lane restrictions as a result, PennDOT said in a release. PennDOT announced the project last week.

The project includes milling the existing surfaces and repaving the roads with new asphalt. Construction and resulting lane restrictions were scheduled to begin Monday and continue through the end of the month. 

Motorists are advised to allow extra time to travel due to probable slowdowns. Construction is weather dependent. Check conditions on roadways at www.511PA.com.
