McKnight Road Construction: What To Expect This Weekend

ROSS TOWNSHIP, PA — Nightly lane closures will resume on McKnight Road beginning Friday, PennDOT has announced.

Single-lane closures will occur on McKnight between Ivory and Roseland avenues from 8 p.m. Friday through 6 a.m. Monday to permit crews to conduct repair work on the McKnight Road bridge over Nelson Run Road.

The work is part of the $27 million McKnight Road improvement project. Work will include bridge and culvert preservation, milling and paving, base repairs, drainage upgrades and repairs, pipe cleaning, guide rail, signal, and ADA ramp upgrades, waterline replacement, concrete mountable curb replacement and new signage and pavement markings between Venture Street and Perrymont Road, including the Babcock Boulevard-Evergreen Road ramps.

Before work concludes next spring, restrictions will also include a 12-day closure of the Nelson Run Road interchange, two weekend closures at the Venture Street intersection, and several overnight ramp closures for paving operations and structure repairs.
