Travel Advisory

Entrance to Pennsylvania Turnpike at Lehigh Valley Interchange to Close Overnight June 10  Seven-hour closure needed for construction work.

 

The Pennsylvania Turnpike Commission advises motorists that the northbound entrance ramp to the PA Turnpike at the Lehigh Valley Interchange will be closed June 10 from 12:01 to 7 a.m.

The closure is necessary for the protection of motorists and workers, so crews can safely complete pavement repair at mile post 56.3. in Lehigh County.

Pennsylvania State Police and Turnpike personnel will be positioned at the impacted interchanges to assist drivers and provide detour information. 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.
