Beginning Monday morning at approximately 8:00 AM, single-lane alternating traffic restrictions controlled by flaggers will occur on Market Place Boulevard between Montour Run Road and Scott Boulevard while crews work to shift traffic. When the shift is completed, bi-directional traffic will be maintained in the northern lanes of Market Place Boulevard.  Crews will be working in the closed southbound lanes.

Additionally, there will be a long-term shoulder closure along westbound Montour Run Road between Hookstown Grade Road and I-376.
