I-76 Near Walt Whitman Bridge To Close For 20 Minute Intervals Between 10 P.M. On October 30 And 4 A.M. On October 31

Both the eastbound and westbound lanes of I-76 near the Walt Whitman Bridge will close to traffic for several 20-minute intervals between the hours of 10 p.m. on Friday, October 30 and 4 a.m. on Saturday, October 31.

The periodic closures are necessary to allow workers to remove an overhead sign gantry in the area of the 7th Street off-ramp. The sign gantry spans across both the eastbound and westbound lanes of I-76.

The first 20-minute roadway closure in both directions is scheduled to begin at approximately 10 p.m. on October 30. The two other 20-minute closures will occur in the early morning hours on October 31.

Work is scheduled to be completed by 4:00 a.m. on October 31.

Variable message signs across the region will advise motorists about the closures and delays.

This work is related to the Walt Whitman Bridge Corridor Rehabilitation at I-76 project.
