Lane Closing On Interstate 76 In Overnight This Week

PHILADELPHIA — This week, a lane will close overnight on portions of Interstate 76 in Philadelphia due to resurfacing work, PennDOT said.

Monday through Friday this week, a lane closure will be in place on sections of eastbound and westbound I-76 between the U.S. 1 South (Exit 339) and Spring Garden/Haverford Avenue (Exit 343) interchanges.

The lane will close from 9 p.m. to 4 a.m. the following morning.

This work is part of a $36.8 million project to resurface and repair nearly five miles of the interstate, the associated on-and-off ramps, and 23 bridges in Philadelphia.

Drivers are advised to allow extra time when traveling through the work areas because backups and delays may occur.

All scheduled activities are weather dependent.
