Additional I-70 lane restrictions planned in Rostraver Township
The eastbound lane of Interstate 70 in Rostraver Township will be subject to single-lane restrictions starting Thursday, June 22.
The restrictions, for rehabilitation work on the Matthew Smelser Memorial Bridge, will occur between Exit 46 A/B (Route 51) and Exit 49 (Smithton), and are expected to last through the end of August, according to the state Department of Transportation.
This work is part of a $120.6 million project involving the widening and reconstruction of I-70, along with the reconstruction of the Route 51 Interchange to replace it with a diverging diamond interchange (DDI).
Current westbound I-70 single-lane restrictions will remain in place.
