The start of a $12.9 million project to replace the Route 30 bridges over Electric Avenue in North Braddock and Chalfant will cause the closure of the eastbound off-ramp from Route 30 to Electric Avenue at 7 a.m. Monday. It will remain closed through late April. Initial work involves water and sewer line improvements on the off-ramp. Later in the season traffic will be reduced to one lane and crossed over while one bridge is replaced. Same prescription for next year.

Intermittent single-lane closures will occur at several locations on the Parkway North and Route 28 on Wednesday and Thursday between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. during guide rail repairs: on the parkway in both directions between I-79 and Perrysville Avenue (Exit 8) and on Route 28 in both directions from Millvale (Exit 3) to Millerstown (Exit 16).

Lane closures are possible on Interstate 79 in the area of the Bridgeville exit from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Wednesday and Thursday. Crews will install barrier delineation, or as we call it, those reflector thingys.

If they build it, will you drive on it? PennDOT has opened the left lane from the Steuben Street connector to southbound Route 60, aka South Main Street, in the West End Circle, after removing the low railroad overpass that was snagging tall trucks. The department says people are still trying to merge right. Stopping and merging are no longer required.
