Single-lane restrictions on Route 28 will start Monday where a bridge goes over Powers Run Road in O’Hara Township.
The lane restrictions will occur in both directions weekdays from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. through the end of May.
The restrictions will be removed in the southbound direction two hours prior to the start of any sporting event in Pittsburgh. They’ll also be northbound two hours before the end of any Pittsburgh sporting event.
In addition, single-lane restrictions will occur on Powers Run Road under Route 28 during the same time frame.
Crews from Swank Construction Co. will be repairing barrier wall and installing overhang jacks.
The work is part of the $15.32 million project to improve about 3.5 miles of Route 28 between the Delafield Avenue exit (Exit 7) and the Harmar line, which is about 1.75 miles north of the RIDC Park (Exit 10) interchange.
Construction will include minor road widening of the southbound lanes near the Freeport Road on-ramp (Exit 8) interchange to allow for the existing lanes to be reassigned.
At the completion of the project, southbound Route 28 will maintain two through lanes and an “exit only” off-ramp to Fox Chapel Road.
