Route 19 Ramp In Upper St. Clair To Close For Bridge Repairs

UPPER ST. CLAIR, PA — The ramp carrying traffic from northbound Route 19 to McMurray Road-McLaughlin Run Road will close this weekend, PennDOT announced.

The closure will be in effect from Aug. 6 at 7 a.m. until Aug. 9 at 6 a.m. so crews can conduct bridge repairs.

Here's the detour:

• Northbound Route 19 to McMurray Road-McLaughlin Run Road.
• Continue northbound on Route 19 past the closed ramp.
• Turn right onto Fort Couch Road.
• Continue straight onto Bethel Church Road.
• Follow Bethel Church Road back to McMurray Road.
• End detour.

The bridge work is part of the $7.27 million improvement project on Route 19 between McMurray Road-McLaughlin Run Road and Connor Road-Gilkinson Road. The project also includes milling and paving, concrete rehabilitation, bridge preservation, drainage and guide rail upgrades, ADA curb ramp and sidewalk improvements, signal updates, and sign and pavement marking installation.
