Lane and exit restrictions along the Parkway East that caused heavy traffic backups Wednesday morning have been lifted, PennDOT announced.
Single-lane restrictions were put in place in both directions of Interstate 376 at the Forbes Avenue/Oakland interchange until about 8 a.m. when the inbound lane was reopened, the agency said.
The Forbes Avenue/Oakland exit was closed to traffic, officials said.
All lanes and the ramp were reopened shortly before 9 a.m.
The closure was the result of problems with a utility line.
