Interstate 79 Overnight Lane Restrictions Monday in Allegheny County

Pittsburgh, PA – PennDOT District 11 is announcing mobile single-lane restrictions in both directions of Interstate 79 in Kennedy, Robinson, and Neville townships in Allegheny County will occur overnight Monday, May 5 weather permitting.

Mobile single-lane restrictions will occur in both directions of I-79 between the Route 60 Crafton/Moon Run (Exit 60 A/B) interchange and the Neville Island Bridge from 7 p.m. Monday night through 6 a.m. Tuesday morning, May 6 to allow crews to conduct field measurement work.  

This work is part of the $43.9 million I-79 “S-Bend” Project that includes full-depth pavement reconstruction, bridge preservation work on five mainline structures (I-79 northbound and southbound over Clever Road, I-79 northbound and southbound over Route 51, and the Neville Island Bridge). Additionally, there was milling and paving of three ramps at the Route 51 (Coraopolis/McKees Rocks) interchange. The project also included guiderail replacement, highway lighting and signing upgrades, new pavement markings and delineation, and other miscellaneous construction work.
