King of Prussia, PA – PECO Energy is planning to close Burmont Road between Jones Street and McCoy Street in Upper Darby Township, Delaware County, beginning Wednesday, October 27, for gas main installation, the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced today. The closure will be in place weekdays from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM through Friday, December 10.

During the closure, Burmont Road motorists will be directed to use Garrett Road, Lansdowne Avenue and Baltimore Avenue. Local access will be maintained up to the construction zone.
