A single-lane restriction on the westbound I-376 off-ramp to southbound I-79 in Robinson Township will begin Monday, March 3, weather permitting.
PennDOT District 11 said that the restriction will be in place from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. each weekday through Friday, March 14, to allow crews to conduct debris removal work in the rockfall area.
Work on this $14.97 million highway restoration project in Robinson and Kennedy townships began in April 2024.
The project begins at the I-376 Airport/Pittsburgh (Exit 59 A/B) interchange and continues approximately one-half mile north of the Route 60 Moon Run/Crafton (Exit 60 A/B) interchange.
Work includes concrete pavement patching, guide rail and cable barrier replacement, highway lighting and signing updates, drainage work, pavement markings and other miscellaneous construction activities on mainline I-79 and 10 ramps — four at the I-376 interchange and six ramps at the Route 60 interchange.
Bridge preservation work will continue on six structures — northbound and southbound I-79 bridges over I-376, Route 60 and Campbells Run Road — including concrete deck overlays, replacement of seals at expansion dams and deck joints, substructure concrete repairs, cleaning of bridge bearings and spot painting of the northbound and southbound I-79 steel I-beam bridges over I-376.
Additionally, preservation work will take place on six existing sign structures — one on northbound I-79 and five on southbound I-79 — as well as concrete repairs and scour protection of two arch culverts underneath mainline I-79 and several ramps. The project is anticipated to conclude in the late spring of 2025.
The prime contractor is Golden Triangle Construction Company, Inc. Work on this project will be coordinated with other projects in the area.
