Chestnut Street Daytime Lane Closure Next Week for Construction in Center City Philadelphia
King of Prussia, PA – Chestnut Street will be reduced to one lane between Schuylkill Avenue West and 24th Street on Tuesday, September 20, through Saturday, September 24, from 7:00 AM to 3:00 PM for driveway construction at the 2400 Chestnut Street apartment building in Center City Philadelphia, the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced today.
Motorists are also reminded that eastbound Market Street (Route 3) is also reduced to a single lane 24/7 between Schuylkill Avenue West and 24th Street for repairs to the Market Street Bridge over the Schuylkill River.
Drivers are advised to use alternate routes or allow extra time when traveling through the work areas because backups and delays will occur. All operations are weather dependent.
The work is part of PennDOT's substantially completed $105.1 million project to rehabilitate the Chestnut Street bridge over the Schuylkill River — which reopened in March — and eight other nearby structures, including the viaducts carrying Schuylkill Avenue over I-76 between Walnut Street and Market Street.
Buckley & Company Inc., of Philadelphia is the general contractor on the project, which is financed with 80% federal and 20% state funds. The entire project will be completed this fall.
