Project Overview
This project will reconstruct and widen 3.5 miles of the Pennsylvania Turnpike from Milepost 49 to Milepost 53 in Oakmont and Plum Boroughs, Allegheny County. The roadway will be widened from four lanes to six lanes, featuring three 12-foot-wide travel lanes in each direction, a 26-foot median, and 12-foot-wide shoulders.
The project also involves replacing mainline bridges over local roads, lengthening culverts, construction sound barriers, and improving stormwater drainage through the area.
Upon completion, this reconstruction and widening will enhance safety and mobility for travelers on this section of the interstate.
