Pittsburgh, PA – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) is announcing a phase change on South Braddock Avenue in Edgewood and Swissvale boroughs, Allegheny County has been implemented.

To assist with the flow of traffic as part of the detour route for the Commercial Street Bridge closure and to allow crews to continue to work on the I-376 bridge overhead, South Braddock Avenue is now in the following traffic configuration around-the-clock through early August:

• Southbound South Braddock Avenue has been reduced to a single-lane of traffic between Allenby Avenue and Monongahela Avenue.

• Northbound South Braddock Avenue has two lanes of traffic between Monongahela Avenue and Allenby Avenue.

Additionally, the off-ramp from westbound I-376 to Edgewood/Swissvale (Exit 77) is now in the following configuration through early August:

• The left-hand lane at the end of the ramp will continue to allow traffic to turn left onto southbound South Braddock Avenue.

• The right-hand lane will only allow traffic to turn right onto northbound South Braddock Avenue. No left turns will be permitted from the right-hand lane.
