Work along Route 28 is expected to impact traffic on Oct. 27, 2021.

Motorists who travel along Route 28 should be aware of two traffic shifts today.

Construction crews will be working in two separate areas in Harmar and O’Hara, with both projects impacting traffic.

From 9 a.m. to 2 p.m., bridge work in the southbound lanes will create a single-lane restriction in Harmar.

Work will target the stretch that crosses Barge Basin between Guys Run Road and the Hulton Bridge.

Later in the day, PennDOT officials said a traffic shift will happen in O’Hara.

Southbound Route 28 vehicles will be limited to using only the left lane near the on-ramp of the Highland Park Bridge.

Crews will be using the closed right lane to install beams in connection with the bridge expansion project.

Work is scheduled from 7 p.m. today to 5 a.m. Thursday.
