Overnight I-76 Lane Closures Scheduled at South Street Interchange in Philadelphia for Overhead Bridge Construction
King of Prussia, PA – Overnight travel restrictions are scheduled over the next two weeks on Interstate 76 at the South Street Interchange in Philadelphia for overhead bridge construction by the City of Philadelphia, the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation said today.
From 10 p.m. Thursday (March 11) to 5 a.m. Friday (March 12), eastbound and westbound I-76 will be reduced from two lanes to one at the South Street Interchange for bridge work above the expressway.
From 10 p.m. Monday, March 22 to 5 a.m. Tuesday, March 23, eastbound I-76 will be reduced from two lanes to one at the South Street Interchange and intermittent 15-minute traffic stoppages will occur after midnight for the erection of a sign structure.
I-76 motorists are advised to allow additional time to travel through the construction area because backups will occur during construction. The contractor’s schedule is dependent on the weather.
The overnight travel restrictions will be in place as crews continue construction of the new South Street Bridge. The City of Philadelphia is building the new $67 million structure.
PennDOT reminds motorists they can log on to 511pa.com or call 511 from any phone to check traffic conditions on I-76 and other major highways before heading out.
