Saxonburg Boulevard closed daily for slide repairs
Landslide repairs along Saxonburg Boulevard in Indiana Township will necessitate a detour for motorists through the first week of August.
Work near Harts Run Road was expected to begin today, PennDOT announced.
Specifically, Saxonburg Boulevard will close from 6 a.m. to 3 p.m. weekdays between Harts Run and Klein Road.
The suggested detour is Harts Run to Middle Road back to Saxonburg Boulevard.
Slide repairs are scheduled to continue through Aug. 6. The road will reopen to traffic at 3 p.m. each day.
Also in Indiana Township, work on McClellan Road was scheduled to start this week and last four months.
A $1 million project is underway to replace Deer Creek Bridge No. 9.
McClellan Road will remain open to traffic throughout the project using a temporary causeway downstream from the existing bridge, officials said.
