King of Prussia, PA – Westbound Interstate 76 (Schuylkill Expressway) motorists will encounter a single lane closure between the U.S. 1 and Belmont Avenue interchanges in Philadelphia and Lower Merion Township, Montgomery County beginning Sunday, August 14, for roadway borings and other drilling activities, the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced today. The lane closure will be in place Sundays through Fridays from 9:00 PM to 5:00 AM the following morning through Thursday, September 1.
In addition, Spring Garden Street will be reduced to a single lane with flagging between Spruce Street and Chestnut Street in West Conshohocken Borough, Montgomery County beginning Monday, August 15, for pavement core drilling operations over I-76. The lane closure will be in place weekdays from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM through Thursday, September 1.
Motorists are advised to use an alternate route or allow more time for travel in the work areas because significant backups and slowdowns may occur. The schedule is weather dependent and subject to change.
