REOPENED: Streets Run Road Closure Lifted

Read here for the latest update.

The project detailed below is complete, and the intersection has reopened.

 ... 

A very busy portion of Streets Run Road—from Route 51 on the border of Baldwin and Whitehall boroughs to Delwar Road in West Mifflin Borough—will see a lengthy thru-traffic closure in both directions from Monday-Wednesday, Nov. 5-7, as crews will work to replace the road surface at a nearby railroad crossing.

Specifically, the at-grade rail crossing is found near Baldwin's four-way intersection of Streets Run, East Willock and Doyle roads (between East Willock and Missionary Drive), and work there is expected to last from 9 a.m. on Monday, Nov. 5, until approximately 4 p.m. on Wednesday, Nov 7.

According to a press release from the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation District 11-0, in cooperation with the Allegheny Valley Railroad Company, about 14,618 vehicles use Streets Run Road in this area on an average day. Crews will work around-the-clock to complete the project.
