During the same time, the Pennsylvania Turnpike will close in both directions from the Route 1 interchange in Bensalem and the Delaware Valley (Route 13) exit in Bristol Township.

Traffic from the highway and Turnpike will be routed on local roads, which will be marked with signage.

In advance, signs giving drivers a heads up were posted on Veterans Highway (Route 413) in Bristol Township.
