The northbound Penn Street off-ramp has reopened, but the southbound ramp remains closed until roughly October. Councilor Leibold asked the city to coordinate with the DOT on game-day traffic reroutes through town during football season.
City Council - Aug 11, 2026
The northbound off-ramp at Penn Street should reopen within about two weeks; the southbound on-ramp stays closed until roughly October, with detours via Forevergreen Road. Commuters should plan for continued detours.
City Council - May 26, 2026
The northbound off ramp closes June 3 for about two months of rebuilding; the southbound on ramp closure follows in mid-July. Plan for detours.
City Council - Jan 27, 2026
The big bridge project enters its final season: night closures next week for beam setting, a traffic shift in late March, and ramp closures around July — but all should be done by the end of 2026.
