Motorists are advised that the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation in coordination with Bridging Pennsylvania Developers I will implement a traffic switch as part of Stage 1, Phase 3 of the I-80 Lehigh River Bridge Project.
Beginning Aug. 14, and continuing through Aug. 28, traffic on Interstate 80 eastbound will be shifted to a single-lane configuration, with only the left lane open.
The single-lane restriction is expected to be lifted before Friday, Aug. 29 for the Labor Day holiday weekend.
Motorists should expect potential delays, follow all posted signs, use caution and allow extra travel time when passing through the area.
This project is part of the ongoing PennDOT Major Bridges P3 Program.
Bridging Pennsylvania Developers – I (BPD-I) is led jointly by Shikun & Binui Ltd. and Macquarie Capital as lead project developers and equity members.
The Bridging Pennsylvania Constructors joint venture consortium includes the design and construction expertise of S&B USA Construction and FCC Construction.
S&B USA Construction is the construction arm of Shikun & Binui Ltd. and is also the parent company of Fay, S&B USA Construction, one of the four BPC Major Bridge subcontractors.
