PennDOT officials said they will be milling and repaving the roadway. The project kicks off Monday and continues into May.
Starting Monday and going forward into May between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m., paving crews will implement alternating lane closures on South Oxford Valley Road between New Falls Road and Hood Boulevard and Southway Drive.
Last fall, PennDOT repaved 3 miles of South Oxford Valley Road and Levittown Parkway in Falls Township, Bristol Township, and Tullytown Borough.

More than a decade has passed since South Oxford Valley Road was repaved. Despite sealing cracks and patching potholes, the road has deteriorated in recent years.
PennDOT has advised local drivers to give extra time when traveling through work zones.
The milling and repaving work is weather dependent.

The local work is part of PennDOT’s regional plan to fix and repave more than 200 miles of Philadelphia-area state roadways and highways.
“Under these resurfacing projects, PennDOT is milling the existing roadway surfaces and repaving the state highways with new asphalt. The new pavement will seal the roadways and provide motorists with a smoother riding surface,” PennDOT said in a statement.
PennDOT is currently repaving Old Lincoln Highway in Middletown Township as part of the regional project.
