U.S. 1 (Roosevelt Expressway) North Lane Closures Next Week for Viaduct Rehabilitation in Philadelphia

King of Prussia, PA – Motorists traveling northbound on U.S. 1 (Roosevelt Expressway) will encounter a lane closure between Fox Street and 17th Street for viaduct rehabilitation, the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced today.

The work schedule is:

• Monday, October 3, through Thursday, October 6, from 7:00 PM to 5:00 AM the following morning, for construction activities. If any scheduled nighttime activities are canceled due to weather, a lane closure will be in place Friday, October 7, from 7:00 PM to 5:00 AM the following morning; and
• Wednesday, October 5, from 9:30 AM to 2:30 PM, for concrete placement on the Wayne Junction Viaduct.

In addition, periodic lane closures may also be in place on southbound U.S. 1 between Fox Street and 17th Street on Monday, October 3, through Thursday, October 6, from 6:00 PM to 5:00 AM the following morning for work on the viaduct.

Motorists are advised to allow extra time when traveling through the work areas because backups and delays will occur. All scheduled activities are weather dependent.

Stage 5 construction is currently underway on the northbound inner lane of the mile-long Wayne Avenue structure. 

South State, Inc. of Bridgeton, N.J. is the general contractor on the $92.4 million project, which is financed with 80% federal and 20% state funds. More project information is available at www.us1wav.com.
