Pittsburgh, PA – PennDOT District 11 is announcing paving operations on the Route 30 improvement project in North Versailles Township and East McKeesport Borough, Allegheny County will occur Tuesday, May 26 weather permitting.

Milling and paving operations will occur from 4 a.m. to 8 p.m. Tuesday on Route 30 between Route 148 in East McKeesport and Route 48 in North Versailles. Route 30 will be reduced to a single-lane of traffic in each direction. This extension was due to a rainout. Flaggers will assist motorists through the work zone.

The $13.59 million project includes milling and resurfacing on Route 30 between Lenox Avenue in Forest Hills and Route 48 in North Versailles. Additional work includes drainage improvements, ADA curb ramp installation, guide rail updates, traffic signal upgrades, and sign and pavement marking installation.

Work times may change when higher traffic volumes resume. Additional details will be provided prior to schedule changes.

Gulisek Construction, LLC is the prime contractor.

Work on this project will be in accordance with Centers for Disease Control and state Department of Health guidance as well as a project-specific COVID-19 safety plan, which will include protocols for social distancing, use of face coverings, personal and job-site cleaning protocols, management of entries to the jobsite, and relevant training.
