The purpose of this web site is to provide you with timely, accurate construction project information to facilitate a favorable travel experience when using Pennsylvania's Turnpike system.

Keeping you informed about planned construction activity on the Turnpike will help you to prepare for safe navigation through construction work zone areas.

This project consists of the total reconstruction and the addition of a third travel lane in each direction of the Pennsylvania Turnpike (I-76) between Warrendale Plaza (Milepost 31) and Butler Valley (Milepost 38). The total reconstruction will be along existing alignment except for the segment between MP 32.4 and MP 35.5 where the existing curve geometry is being improved. In addition to the roadway improvements, all four structures carrying the mainline will be reconstructed. Previously four (4) overhead structures crossing the turnpike mainline were replaced in preparation for this project. Construction began (Notice to Proceed) June 9, 2009 and is scheduled to be completed by late fall 2012. The current estimate for Construction Costs is $113 million.

The project is scheduled to be completed in Late Fall 2012.
