• Tuesday, March 15, from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM, a right lane closure is scheduled on northbound Henry Avenue between Philadelphia University Drive and Hermit Lane;
• Wednesday, March 16, from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM, a right lane closure is scheduled on eastbound I-76 between the Grays Ferry Avenue and the 28^th Street interchanges; and
