PennDOT District 11 is announcing a lane restriction on I-376 (Parkway East) in Churchill Borough, Wilkins Township and the Municipalities of Penn Hills and Monroeville, Allegheny County will occur Wednesday and Thursday, December 18-19 weather permitting.

Single-lane restrictions on I-376 in each direction will occur between the Churchill (Exit 79B) and the Pennsylvania Turnpike (Exit 85) exit from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Wednesday and Thursday as crews conduct asphalt patching operations and median barrier repairs.

This work is part of the $70.1 million I-376 Parkway East Betterment Project. Work will include a superstructure replacement over Old William Penn Highway, two bridge rehabilitations over Old William Penn Highway/Lougeay Road/Sunset Drive and Thompson Run Road/Thompson Run/Union Railroad, and six bridge preservations along the I-376. Throughout the project motorists can expect long-term single-lane restrictions, several weekends with traffic down to a single lane, and a long-term crossover in 2025. The improvements on the 4.5 miles of the Parkway East between the Churchill/Route 130 (Exit 79B) and Monroeville/Route 48 (Exit 84A) exit are anticipated to conclude in the fall 2026. Swank Construction Company, LLC is the prime contractor.
