I-76 East Closing Fully This Weekend In Philadelphia
PHILADELPHIA — A portion of Interstate 76 east in Philadelphia will close fully this weekend, PennDOT said.From 9 p.m. Friday to 5 a.m. Monday, eastbound I-76 will be closed from just after the ramp to Grays Ferry Avenue/University Avenue (Exit 346B) to just before the 34th Street on-ramp.During the closure, the regional detour route will use I-676 East to I-95 South; or I-476 South to I-95 North.Local traffic will be directed to exit at Grays Ferry Avenue/University Avenue (Exit 346B) and use the University Avenue Bridge/34th Street to access the ramp to I-76 East.All ramps to, and from, I-76 East will remain open to traffic during the weekend closure.Electronic message boards on I-76 and other regional transportation arteries will be utilized to alert motorists about the closure and provide specific alternate routes.The weekend closure will allow PennDOT’s contractors to repair sections of deteriorated concrete deck and resurface the structure that carries I-76 East over the Schuylkill River and CSX rail tracks, and the adjacent land structure that carries I-76 East over Grays Ferry Avenue, Wharton Street and Reed Street.Motorists are advised to avoid the closure area if possible during the weekend closure because significant backups will occur on I-76 East approaching the work area, and on surface streets in the vicinity of the work area and detour routes.The article I-76 East Closing Fully This Weekend In Philadelphia appeared first on Philadelphia, PA Patch.
