Homestead Grays Bridge lane restrictions to continue through end of May

Work on the Homestead Grays Bridge will resume Sunday night and is expected to continue through the end of the month.

Although milling and paving work is done, the bridge will once again be reduced to one lane in each direction starting at 10 p.m. Sunday. Those restrictions will be in place from 10 p.m. to 6 a.m. Monday through Friday for the remainder of the project, which will conclude later this month, according to the Allegheny County Department of Public Works.

No more ramp closures are expected, and pedestrians will continue to have access to the bridge’s sidewalks.

The milling and paving work is part of a $2.5 million bridge preservation project that began on March 25 and that includes structural steel repairs, downspout and scupper repairs and cleanout, and barrier and deck repairs.

The bridge spans the Monongahela River between Homestead and Pittsburgh.
