Beginning at 5 a.m. Saturday, the current southbound Route 28 single-lane restriction between the Virginia Avenue Extension on-ramp to just south of the Highland Park Bridge southbound (Exit 6) interchange will shift from the left lane to right lane and is anticipated to remain until August 2023. Crews from Golden Triangle Construction, Inc. are relocating traffic onto the new pavement in order to reconstruct the existing pavement. 

Please allow extra time and use caution when traveling through the work zone.

To help keep motorists informed as work progresses, PennDOT has created an email distribution list for Route 28 traffic advisories and construction updates. Enroll by sending email addresses to stcowan@pa.gov. Please write “Subscribe – Route 28” in the subject line.
