​Rolling nighttime closures are planned for the westbound and eastbound lanes of Interstate 90 near the site of the McKee Road bridge over the highway in Springfield Township, Erie County. 

The temporary closures, which are needed so that crews demolish the bridge, are expected to take place between 7:00 PM and 6:00 AM on Monday through Thursday, August 9 to 12, 2021, weather permitting. 

Motorists are urged to use caution when traveling through the area, anticipate stopped or slow-moving traffic, and be prepared for traffic delays. 

Once the demolition is complete, work will start on replacing the structure. The work is being done in connection with the I-90 reconstruction project from mile post 3.5 to mile post 10.5. Additional information on the project is available online at www.penndot.gov/I90Projects.
