The closure of Nadine Road in Penn Hills will now begin in August, Allegheny County public works announced Thursday.
The road closure, originally scheduled to begin July 28, will now begin at 7 a.m. Aug. 3 because of ongoing nearby utility work, officials said.
The closure is expected to last two weeks as crews work to construct a support wall. A second closure in August is also expected to allow crews to repave the road.
Details for the second closure in August were not offered.
People who live nearby will have access to their homes, but traffic on Nadine Road will be detoured using Allegheny River Boulevard and Sandy Creek, Verona and Lincoln roads.
The work, being done by Pittsburgh-based Northeast Paving, is part of an ongoing project that started in February. Officials said the project has included the removal of a pipe restricting water flow from a culvert, the relining of a stream, roadway repairs and the installation of signage.
The road closed indefinitely in July 2019, when rain caused a retaining wall to fall and part of the road to collapse. It reopened to traffic in November.
