McKnight Road Lane Closures Moving To Different Days

ROSS TOWNSHIP, PA — McKnight Road lane closures recently have occurred only on weekends. That's about to change.

Beginning Oct. 7, traffic will be reduced to a single lane in each direction as needed on McKnight Road and Evergreen Road between Ivory Avenue and Venture Street weekdays from 8 a.m.-4 p.m. through early November.

The closures are necessary to permit crews to install ADA ramps.

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.
