Fall roadwork continues

The calendar and the weather may have flipped to fall, but roadwork continues. Here’s what to expect this week:

• Route 910 – The southbound on-ramp to Interstate 79 in Franklin Park will be reduced to one lane from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Monday through Wednesday while Penn Power relocates utility lines. One of the two turning lanes from westbound Route 910 to I-79 also will be closed during the work, which is part of the $46.5 million reconstruction of the interchange.
• Interstate 579 – Southbound traffic on the Veterans Bridge over the Allegheny River in Pittsburgh will be reduced to one lane overnight through late October. The restriction will begin Monday and occur from 8 p.m. to 6 a.m. to allow bridge washing activities. Also, crews will work from 8 p.m. Monday to 6 a.m. Tuesday to create a traffic shift on the southbound ramp from Route 28 to the Veterans Bridge.
• Hite Road –Drainage work that will close a portion of the road in Springdale Township begin at 7 a.m. Monday and last through 5 p.m. Friday between Pillow Avenue and Spring Street. Crews will replace drainage pipes and install inlets in that section of the road. Detours will be posted.
• Interstate 79 – Single-lane overnight restrictions will occur as needed on Route 60, Interstate 79 and the Parkway West through early November as crews put the finishing touches on the $14.7 million project to improve the highway between the Parkway West Airport/Pittsburgh interchange and approximately one-half mile north of the Route 60 Moon Run/Crafton interchange. Work from 7 p.m. to 6 a.m. will include bridge deck compression seal replacement, shoulder backup, overhead sign structure preservation, drainage, tree trimming, and delineator replacement work in both directions on Route 60 between Lorish Road and Old Steubenville Pike; between the Parkway West Airport/Pittsburgh interchange and approximately one-half mile north of the Route 60 Moon Run/Crafton interchange; and on the Parkway West between the I-79 interchange and the on-ramp from I-79.
• Cumberland Road – Sections of the road in McCandless will have single-lane alternating traffic from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. beginning Monday and lasting until early November for gas line replacement. The restrictions will be at Cumberland’s intersection with Guenevere Drive and between Lancelot and Plateau drives. D&M Contracting is replacing the lines for Peoples Gas.
•  Route 28 – There will be weeknight traffic restrictions in two sections of the highway in Pittsburgh and Millvale beginning Monday. From 8 p.m. to 5 a.m.  Monday through Wednesday, the southbound ramp to Millvale will be closed and highway traffic will be reduced to one lane near the exit for electrical work on the ramp. Detours will be posted. Beginning Wednesday and lasting weeknights through Oct. 24, the northbound off-ramp to the 31^st Street Bridge will close to work on guide rails, pavement marking and sign installation. Detours will be posted. The work is part of the $4.8 million project to install equipment that will go into operation early next year to warn drivers going the wrong way on the highway.
