King of Prussia, PA – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced today that lighting installations will occur next week on U.S. 1 (Roosevelt Expressway) under a $100.6 million project to rehabilitate the Wayne Junction Viaduct over the SEPTA tracks and Nicetown neighborhood of Philadelphia.
Motorists are advised of the following travel restrictions:
- Tuesday, January 23, from 7:00 PM to 5:30 AM the following morning, a right lane closure will be in place on northbound U.S. 1 (Roosevelt Expressway) between Henry Avenue and Wissahickon Avenue; and
- Tuesday, January 23, from 6:00 PM to 5:30 AM the following morning, a right lane closure will be in place on southbound U.S. 1 (Roosevelt Expressway) between Wissahickon Avenue and Henry Avenue.
The lane closures are needed so the contractor can install underside lighting on the Fox Street bridge under PennDOT's substantially completed Wayne Junction Viaduct rehabilitation project.
