PennDOT - District 6 News: I-76 West Lane Closure at Night Next Week for Viaduct Rehabilitation in Center City Philadelphia

I-76 West Lane Closure at Night Next Week for Viaduct Rehabilitation in Center City Philadelphia

King of Prussia, PA – Travel restrictions will be in place at night next week on westbound Interstate 76 between the South Street and Interstate 676 interchanges in Center City Philadelphia for construction to rehabilitate an overhead viaduct, the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced today. 

Weather permitting, the work schedule is:

  • Monday, December 16, through Thursday, December 19, from 9:00 PM to 5:00 AM the following morning, westbound I-76 will be reduced to one lane between the South Street and I-676 interchanges for removal of a section of the debris shield under the Schuylkill Avenue viaduct; and
  • Monday, December 16, through Thursday, December 19, from 11:00 PM to 5:00 AM the following morning, the westbound I-76 ramp to 30th Street will be closed. Ramp traffic will be detoured west on I-76 to eastbound Interstate 676, exit at 23rd Street, turn left on 23rd Street, left on the ramp to westbound I-676, and back to eastbound I-76 to the ramp to 30th Street.

Drivers are advised to use an alternate route or allow extra time when traveling through the work areas because backups and delays will occur. 

Next week's scheduled lane closures of westbound I-76 may be adjusted to start later than 11 PM if necessary to accommodate motorists leaving the sports complex in South Philadelphia.

PennDOT is repairing and resurfacing the I-76 viaduct under a $39.8 million contract that also includes repairs to the three-span I-76 structure over Route 23 (Conshohocken State Road) in West Conshohocken Borough, just east of the Interstate 476/Conshohocken Interchange in Montgomery County. More information is available at www.I76viaduct.com.

Repairs to the Schuylkill Avenue viaduct are part of PennDOT's $103.6 million project to rehabilitate the Chestnut Street bridge over the Schuylkill River — which is closed until August 2020 for repairs — and eight other nearby structures, including those carrying Schuylkill Avenue over I-76 between Walnut Street and Chestnut Street, and between Chestnut Street and Market Street.
