Due to high traffic volumes and the need to maintain 2 lanes of traffic in each direction on U.S. 1 from 5 AM to 9 PM, certain construction operations will be restricted to nighttime work when additional working room (i.e., additional lane closures) is necessary. PennDOT will attempt to limit the amount of nighttime work permitted through requirements included in the contract documents.
How long is the estimated construction duration?
The construction duration within the RC2 corridor is currently anticipated to take approximately 5.5 years total, through Summer 2026; however, it should be noted that this schedule is subject to factors such as utility relocations, weather, etc.
