Northbound Route 28 weekend crossover scheduled in O'Hara Township
A busy last few months of road construction work on Route 28 continues this weekend.
PennDOT District 11 has announced work requiring a weekend crossover on Route 28 North will begin at 8 p.m. Friday and continue through 5 a.m. Monday, weather permitting.
Northbound traffic will be crossed over into the southbound lanes for about a half-mile between the RIDC Drive (Exit 10) and Harmar (Exit 11) interchanges. A single 11-foot lane of traffic will be maintained in each direction of Route 28 in the southbound lanes.
Traffic will be reduced to a single lane in each direction approaching the crossover beginning at 7 p.m. on Friday, PennDOT said.
While the crossover is in place, crews will work on replacing a 5-foot storm sewer pipe, according to PennDOT.
The work is part of a $15.32 million betterment project.
Swank Construction Company is the prime contractor on the project.
