Daytime Express E-ZPass Lane Closure Scheduled For Oct. 6 at Warrendale Toll Plaza

The Pennsylvania Turnpike advises motorists that the eastbound and westbound Express E-ZPass lanes at the Warrendale Mainline Toll Plaza (Exit #30) in Allegheny County will be closed Oct. 6 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. – weather permitting. Only E-ZPass customers use these lanes, which allow travel at highway speeds.

E-ZPass customers can still pay electronically using the conventional E-ZPass lanes on the right side of the plaza. Conventional lanes are designated as E-ZPass Only or Cash Only. Motorists should be aware that the conventional E-ZPass lanes have a speed limit of 5 mph.

The closure is needed for routine maintenance work to the electronic toll equipment. This work will proceed as weather permits. Message Boards will be in place to alert motorists of the closure.

Travelers can get Turnpike traffic alerts by calling 866-976-TRIP (8747) or visiting the live Travel Conditions Map online at www.paturnpike.com/webmap. The Pa. Turnpike’s smartphone app, TRIP Talk, streams audio advisories to iPhone and Droid users so they can keep their hands on the wheel and eyes on the road.
