Route 3104 McKees Rocks Bridge Next Phase Begins Monday Night in McKees Rocks

​PennDOT District 11 is announcing the next phase of the Route 3104 McKees Rocks Bridge Preservation project in McKees Rocks Borough, Allegheny County will begin Monday night, March 18 weather permitting.

Starting at 6 p.m. Monday night, the McKees Rocks Bridge will enter the next phase of work. Traffic will continue to utilize a single-lane on the bridge in each direction, however the travel lanes will be switched to the opposite side of the bridge. This new phase will guide both directions of traffic through the eastbound lanes.

The entire traffic switch will not be complete until 7 a.m. Monday, March 25. During this time crews will need to reset temporary barrier and conduct line painting operations, requiring nighttime intermittent traffic stoppages of 15 minutes or less between 8 p.m. and 5 a.m. During the stoppages, flaggers will assist motorists through the work zone as needed.

The $38.6 million McKees Rocks Bridge preservation project extends between Route 51 (Island Avenue) and Route 65 (Ohio River Boulevard) and includes sidewalk replacement, sidewalk support steel repairs, sidewalk railing painting, full-depth concrete pavement reconstruction of the road and two ramps at Helen Street, ADA curb ramp installation, approach pavement work at intersections of Routes 65 and 51, barrier replacement and upgrade, deck overhang and spall repair, railroad fencing installation, and other miscellaneous construction. As work occurs, traffic will be reduced to a single lane in each direction. The overall project is anticipated to conclude in the fall of 2025.

The Brayman Construction Corporation and Advantage Steel and Construction, LLC are the prime contractor.
