Motorists are advised that contractors for the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) will begin pre-construction activities for the I-80 Nescopeck Creek Bridges Project in preparation for the start of demolition and construction of the two bridges carrying eastbound and westbound I-80 over Nescopeck Creek in Black Creek Township, Luzerne County.
On or about April 25, 2024, work will begin on the first of four construction stages to be completed in the Fall of 2027. Initial activities will include the cutting of trees along Route 3016 (Tank Rd) and Interstate 80 through May 15, 2024.
Motorists can expect two (2) lanes of traffic to be maintained in both eastbound and westbound lanes, with the exception of limited lane closures, which will occur during off-peak hours.
This project is part of the ongoing PennDOT Major Bridges P3 Program.
When encountering a work zone, please drive the posted speed limit, turn on your headlights, pay close attention to signs and flaggers, and avoid all distractions. In high-traffic locations, motorists are encouraged to use both lanes of travel to the merge point and take turns merging into the open lane.
