PennDOT is announcing intermittent single-lane closures on Grand Avenue in Neville Township, will occur Monday through Friday, September 13-17 weather permitting.

Intermittent single-lane closures will occur beneath the Neville Island Bridge on Grand Avenue in each direction between Hubert Street and Pershing Road daily from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. as crews conduct concrete repairs.

The $43 million I-79 Neville Island Bridge Rehabilitation Project includes structural steel repairs, full structure painting, bearing and deck joint replacements, deck repairs and overlays, bridge barrier repair, substructure concrete work and drainage improvements. The project also includes concrete roadway reconstruction, guide rail replacement and preservation work on four sign structures. Additionally, preservation work will occur on the I-79 bridge over Deer Run Road, north of the Neville Island Bridge. Motorists will see ramp closures and single-lane and shoulder closures in each direction on I-79 during daylight off-peak and overnight hours. Other traffic impacts include four northbound weekend closures in 2021 and four southbound weekend closures in 2022. The overall project is expected to be completed in the summer of 2023.
