PennDot warned that backups will occur.
Crews will reopen the eastbound and westbound expressway to two lanes with a traffic pattern switch from 5 a.m. tomorrow to Sunday morning.
PennDot district executive Lester C. Toaso said that crews will remove a portion of the existing concrete median and replace it with a new swing gate barrier so emergency officials can open the median when traffic must be diverted from one side of the expressway to the other during an emergency closure of the highway.
