Lane Restrictions in Effect on Breezewood Connector 

Construction to last until end of October.

BREEZEWOOD, PA —The Pennsylvania Turnpike Commission advises travelers that construction work getting underway today will lead to lane closures on the Breezewood Connector between the mainline PA Turnpike (Interstate 70) and U.S. Route 30. 

The Breezewood exit ramp from U.S. 30 westbound to I-70 eastbound is scheduled to be restricted to one lane until October 31st. Currently, the left lane is closed and will be for several weeks to allow for reconstruction. In mid-October, the pattern will switch, and the right lane will close for reconstruction. Motorists should be prepared for slow-moving traffic and delays in this area.
