For approximately 12 weeks, starting on May 31, the following traffic patterns will occur at the intersection of Country Club Road and Pike Street in Chartiers Township:

• Traffic will only be able to travel southbound on Pike Street from the intersection of First Street and Pike Street, all the way to Interstate 79.

• Country Club Road will still have access for traffic in both directions.

• For the marked detour for northbound Pike Street, off of Exit 40 (Meadow Lands). Motorists will be directed to Interstate 79 Exit 41 (Race Track Road) back to Pike Street. Pike Street will be open up to the road closed signs.

• I-79 Exit 40 will not be closed, and traffic will still be able to enter and exit on Exit 40 to access Locust Avenue, Manifold Road and also turn northbound on Pike Street for a short distance until reaching the road closed signs.

This project is for the improvement of the Pike Street and Country Club Road intersection. The project involves the widening of Pike Street and Country Club Road to both provide turning lanes and improve the turning radius for trucks. The project will also replace both the existing traffic signal and the at-grade railroad crossing. The contractor on this $2.1 million job is Frank Gavlik & Sons Inc. The project will completed in September.
