A new temporary traffic pattern is coming to an intersection in Allegheny County as part of an ongoing interchange project. <\/p>\n
On Tuesday, PennDOT officials say there will be single-lane restrictions in both directions of Wexford Bayne Road between the I-79 interchange and the Nicholson Road Intersection. <\/p>\n
The restrictions are expected to be in place until 3 p.m. Wednesday so crews can relocate signal heads and paint lines. <\/p>\n
Once the restrictions are removed, drivers will notice a new traffic configuration that will stay in place until late May. The configuration is as follows: <\/p>\n
Eastbound Wexford Bayne Road<\/p>\n
One thru-lane of traffic will be maintained heading eastbound to Route 910The second thru-lane will be closedThe right-hand turn lane to southbound I-79\u00a0will remain open<\/p>\n

Officials say this will allow for median removal and replacement. <\/p>\n These restrictions and changing traffic patterns are all part of the $46.5 million I-79\/Route 910 Wexford Interchange project, which includes the construction of a full offset single-point urban interchange.<\/p>\n The project is expected to finish in September 2027.
