Pittsburgh, PA – PennDOT District 11 is announcing lane restrictions in both directions of Interstate 79 in Kennedy, Robinson, and Neville townships, Allegheny County will begin Friday evening, April 25 weather permitting.
Single-lane restrictions will occur in both directions of I-79 between the Neville Island Bridge and the Route 51/Coraopolis/McKees Rocks (Exit 64) interchange ramps from 7 p.m. Friday continuously through 6 a.m. Monday morning, April 28 to allow crews to conduct concrete patching.
These restrictions are weather dependent and may be implemented later than 7 p.m. Friday, April 25 due to forecasted rain.
This work is part of the $43.9 million I-79 “S-Bend” Project that included full-depth pavement reconstruction, and bridge preservation work. Additionally, there was milling and paving of three ramps at the Route 51 (Coraopolis/McKees Rocks) interchange.
