The Jaymor Road/James Way detour will be a thing of the past come next month, according to PennDOT.

Back in January, the Bucks County Water and Sewer Authority began work on a water main replacement project on the portion of County Line Road between Jaymor Road and Huntingdon Pike (Rte 232).   When the project began, officials estimated that the project would be finished by April 6.

Water Main Work Creates Traffic Woes on County Line

Traffic restrictions at County Line and York roads has caused a build up of traffic congestion at the busy intersection. The section is expected to be complete by next week.

Traveling along the County Line and York road intersection has its harrowing moments, but the past two weeks have been practically impossible for motorists.

For example, if you are traveling westbound on County Line, and wanted to turn left on York, workers will stop you and direct you to keep driving on County Line. Though the project is still months away from completion, Bucks County Water & Sewer Authority spokesperson Patrick Cleary says that section will be cleared of construction …
