Expect a lane restriction on northbound I-83 and delays from 9:00 PM on Sunday, November 15, through 6:00 AM on Monday, November 16.
Harrisburg, PA – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced today that the new northbound Interstate 83 Exit 44A ramp to Route 230 (Cameron Street) is scheduled to open on Monday, November 16, in the City of Harrisburg, Dauphin County.
Weather permitting, a northbound traffic shift will be conducted from 9:00 PM on Sunday, November 15, through 6:00 AM on Monday, November 16. Travelers should expect a northbound lane restriction and delays between Lemoyne Borough and 13th Street during work hours.
Once the new ramp is open, a new traffic signal at the ramp intersection with Cameron Street will be activated and the existing northbound I-83 ramp to 13th Street will be closed permanently.
This work is associated with the first contract of East Shore Section 3 of the I-83 Capital Beltway Project.
Travelers are reminded to be alert for these operations, to obey work zone signs, and to use caution when driving through work zones for their safety, as well as for the safety of the road crews.
This work is part of the first of two contracts for East Shore Section 3 of the larger I-83 Capital Beltway Project. This contract includes widening and reconstructing portions of the I-83 roadway, construction of overhead bridges at 29th Street and 19th Street, construction of the new Cameron Street Interchange, removing the 13th Street interchange, and roadway improvements along the Cameron Street, 19th Street and 29th Street corridors.
There may be significant impacts to traffic during the life of this project, including traffic shifts, lane restrictions and road closures/detours. Advance notice will be issued prior to any major traffic impacts.
New Enterprise Stone and Lime Company, Inc., of New Enterprise, PA, is the contractor on this $154,627,000 project. All work on this contract is expected to be completed by October 12, 2027.
