HARRISBURG, PA. (FEB. 9, 2007) – Beginning Saturday, Feb. 10 through Sunday, Feb. 11, lane restrictions will be in effect for exiting traffic at Harrisburg East Interchange, #247.

The far right exit lanes — lanes 7, 8, and 9 — will be taken out of service between 11 p.m. Saturday and 5 a.m. Sunday. Exit lanes 4 and 5 — located to the left of the construction work area — will remain open for exiting traffic.

These restrictions are needed to allow the contractor to install a new overhead sign structure at Harrisburg East. The steel structure will accommodate bright, new LED signs to distinguish E-ZPass and cash lanes.

The work at the Harrisburg East Interchange is part of a $150 million project to replace the Susquehanna River Bridge, approach roadway, interchange ramps and bridges and toll plaza.
Toll-plaza construction is to be completed in late summer 2007.
