BIG CONSTRUCTION ALERT FOR LOWER BUCKS

Crews have started a $90.5 million widening project on the Pennsylvania Turnpike.
The work covers about 2.5 miles of I-276, between the toll plaza near Bensalem and Bensalem Boulevard.

Here’s what drivers need to know:

🛣️ Center median reconstruction starts first
🌙 Overnight lane closures expected through October
➕ A new lane will eventually be added in each direction
🚗 Two lanes will remain open each way during peak times
🔇 New sound barrier and stormwater facility
💳 Open Road Tolling will eventually replace the existing toll plaza

The project is expected to continue through 2029 and will also help prepare for the eventual replacement of the 70-year-old Delaware River Turnpike bridge.

Middletown Township has adopted new rules for temporary signs.

The Board of Supervisors unanimously approved an ordinance banning all temporary signs from township rights-of-way — including political signs, business ads, youth sports notices, contractor signs, and community-event signs.

🏠 On private property, individual signs are limited to 12 square feet, with a 24-square-foot total limit, and signs must be at least 10 feet from the right-of-way.

🗳️ Political signs can be posted no more than 30 days before an election and must be removed within 10 days afterward.

Enforcement will be largely complaint-driven, and fines can reach $500 per day.

What do you think of the new rules?

A standing-room-only crowd packed Newtown Borough Council Tuesday night for the latest vision for Liberty Centre.

The proposed redevelopment would transform roughly 9 acres in the heart of Newtown into:

🏘️ 4 multi-story residential buildings
🏠 Up to 125 living units
🌿 A greenway along Newtown Creek
☕ A village square with cafes and small retail
🅿️ Up to 60 public parking spaces
🌳 New community gathering spaces

Architects say the buildings are designed to reflect Newtown’s historic village character, with spaces between the structures rather than one large apartment complex.

The project is still in the concept stage and would need to go through ordinance reviews and other approval processes. Borough officials also said there will be opportunities for public input.

A major restoration project is underway at Tyler State Park as crews begin removing the Spring Garden Dam from Neshaminy Creek.

The $1.3 million project is expected to restore the creek to a more natural, free-flowing condition, improve fish and wildlife passage, and make the area safer for paddlers and anglers.

🐢 Endangered red-bellied turtles were relocated ahead of construction, with many expected to return once the work is complete.

Park operations will continue, but some sections of the footpath and Neshaminy Creek Trail will temporarily close during construction.

Construction is expected to continue through the end of the month.

Newtown Borough Council is set to hear updated plans for the proposed Liberty Center redevelopment tonight at 7 PM.

The original proposal called for 124 residential units across four multi-story buildings on roughly 9 acres in the heart of Newtown. Council members previously raised concerns about the residential-only plan and building sizes.

The updated proposal is described by a councilor as “markedly different.” Plans still include a public plaza and a walkway along Newtown Creek, with the proposed plaza growing from 5,000 to 15,000 square feet.

📍 Chancellor Center, 30 N. Chancellor St.
🕖 Tonight at 7 PM
📺 Livestream available on Newtown Borough’s YouTube channel

Public comment requires attending the meeting in person.

A major change is coming to one of Bucks County’s longtime shopping destinations. 🛍️

Officials say Neshaminy Mall in Bensalem Township is expected to close by the end of October, with the Bucks County Redevelopment Authority working with the property’s owners on a potential redevelopment plan.

📍 The roughly 108-acre property sits along Route 1 near the Pennsylvania Turnpike.

While the mall is closing, AMC Neshaminy 24, Boscov’s, and Barnes & Noble are expected to remain open.

The mall was sold to Paramount Realty in September 2024, and officials say redevelopment plans are still in the very early stages.

The property has already seen major changes, including the closures of Macy’s and Sears.
