Notice of Intent to Enter Letter from PennDOT

The Township has received notification that some residents may have received a recent mailing from PennDOT regarding the Brownsville Road Bridge over Neshaminy Creek Replacement Project.

PennDOT stated that they will be performing field surveys, engineering studies, and soil testing for the project to improve SR 2043, Brownsville Road Bridge over Neshaminy Creek in Lower Southampton and Middletown Townships, Bucks County.

The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania Eminent Domain Code permits entry upon private property to enable the Department to perform this work.

The Notice of Intent to Enter letter emphatically states that the need for the Department to access property at this stage of the project is no indication that an acquisition will be necessary.  However, the language is by necessity official in tone, and may generate some concern on the part of anyone not used to reading such correspondence.

Residents should contact PennDOT Project Manager for the Brownsville Road Bridge Project if they have any questions or concerns.  Judith Arena – 610-205-6524 or jarena@pa.gov.

United Way of Bucks County

The United Way of Bucks County’s HELP Center has been providing assistance to Bucks County residents affected by the recent storms and flooding by distributing donations of new home goods and living essentials to those in need. But those resources are running low.

If you would like to support their efforts, they are currently accepting donations of the following items: complete towel sets, complete sheet sets (twin, full and queen), undergarments (socks, undershirts and underpants), personal care products, shampoo, soap, deodorant and laundry detergent. All items must be new and in their original packaging. No gently used items can be accepted.

The HELP Center, 194 Commerce Circle in Bristol, takes donations on Mondays, Tuesdays or Thursdays from 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.

The HELP Center – a Healthy Eating and Living Partnership – is a collaboration of three nonprofit agencies: Bucks County Opportunity Council, St. Mary Medical Center and United Way of Bucks County.
