Crews will be modifying the ramp that carries traffic onto the McKeesport-Duquesne Bridge from Route 837 northbound.
The work will begin Monday, weather permitting, says Jim Struzzi, district spokesman for the state Department of Transportation.
Work will include modifying the barrier by adjusting the turn radius to minimize the chance of trucks hitting the end transition. Work will occur from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. daily, but the ramp will remain open with some brief traffic stoppages, Struzzi says.
Motorists are advised to use caution, slow down and be prepared for changing traffic patterns. The work is part of a multi-project $1.8 million contract with Allison Park Contractors Inc., Struzzi says.
