October Calendar


Cedar Mill Road Closures

Public Works Updates 

The Kennett Township Department of Public Works will be replacing a deteriorated pipe beginning today (September 30th).  Work is expected to be completed by Thursday, October 10th.  

Due to construction vehicles and equipment, as well as the need to trench across the road, the upper leg of Davenport Road, between Cedarcroft Road and Donny Road will be closed.  Access to driveways within the road closure are permitted.  Pedestrians and bicyclists should also avoid the area during working hours due to the heavy equipment and material moving around.  To view the map of the closure, Click Here.  

Questions can be directed to Ted Otteni, Director of Public Works, at (610) 388-1300 ext. 112 or ted.otteni@kennett.pa.us.  

The announcement was sent to the HOA to make the residents aware within the development last week.  A post was made on social media on Friday, September 27th and a reminder was posted on Sunday, September 29th.
