Pennsylvania Turnpike to Close Overnight April 9 between Mid-County and Quakertown |
||
The Pennsylvania Turnpike Commission advises motorists that the Northeastern Extension (I-476) will be closed in both directions on April 9 from 12:01 to 7 a.m. between the Mid-County Interchange, Exit 20, Montgomery County, and the Quakertown Interchange, Exit 44, Bucks County. The closure is necessary for the protection of motorists and workers so crews can safely erect bridge beams. The bridge, which carries Harleysville Pike over the Turnpike, crosses I-476 at milepost A33.88 in Bucks County. Some single lane closures and traffic stoppages may occur April 8 during the night-time hours to prepare for the closure. Pennsylvania State Police and Turnpike personnel will be positioned at the impacted interchanges to assist drivers. Changeable message signs will also provide information on closures and detours. Motorists are encouraged to plan travel accordingly. Work schedules are subject to change based on weather conditions.
