Road Closures

Message From North Wales Water Authority:

Please be advised that our contractor will commence milling and restoration paving of Ferry Road starting on 9-12-23 in a southern direction from Swamp Road (Rt 313) and headed toward Park Avenue.  While most of this operation will be to restore the southbound lane of Ferry Road, it unfortunately will SEVERLY restrict (Close) traffic in both directions except for emergency vehicles.  If you attempt to travel through the immediate work zone during the work hours of 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., you will undoubtedly encounter travel delays as the milling and paving operation require both lanes to be closed during this process.  We appreciate your continued cooperation as this project continues to near completion.

We appreciate your continued understanding and patience as this improvement work continues. The Park Avenue – Ferry Road Transmission Main page can be accessed by clicking/tapping HERE.
