Bridge Deck Repair Planned Tuesday on Interstate 76 West (Schuylkill Expressway) in Southwest Philadelphia
Philadelphia, PA – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced today that bridge deck repair will occur on westbound I-76 (Schuylkill Expressway) in Southwest Philadelphia.
Motorists are advised of the following travel restriction:
- Tuesday, December 17, from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM, the right lane will close on westbound I-76 (Schuylkill Expressway) between the Vare Avenue on-ramp and South Street off-ramp.
During this operation, all ramps to-and-from I-76 (Schuylkill Expressway) will remain open to traffic; however, there will be a lane close with periodic stoppages on the ramp from Vare Avenue to westbound I-76 (Schuylkill Expressway).
Motorists are advised to avoid the work area if possible because significant backups will occur. This operation is weather dependent.
The lane closure will allow PennDOT's contractors to patch sections of deteriorated concrete deck on the structures that carry I-76 (Schuylkill Expressway) over Reed Street, Wharton Street, and Grays Ferry Avenue, and over the Schuylkill River and CSX rail tracks.
