Ramp closure scheduled at Cranberry Interchange


Ramp closure scheduled at Cranberry Interchange

Impacting Westbound Exit onto U.S. Route 19

CRANBERRY TOWNSHIP, PA — Motorists are advised that, weather permitting, a ramp closure coming off the Pennsylvania Turnpike (Interstate 76) westbound at the Cranberry Interchange (Exit 28) will result in a detour next week.

The off-ramp onto U.S. Route 19 (Warrendale/Cranberry) will be closed from 6 a.m. Monday, October 16 until 5 a.m. Friday, October 20. This is to allow for concrete pavement repairs as part of an ongoing repair and maintenance project at the Cranberry Interchange.

Traffic will be directed onto the Interstate 79 (Pittsburgh/Erie) exit during the closure. Drivers will proceed through the exit for 0.3 miles to the U.S. Route 19 (Warrendale/Cranberry) exit traditionally used by those exiting the Turnpike eastbound. Turnpike and local travelers should expect higher than normal traffic volumes at the exit point during the closure and should plan accordingly.
