Motorists traveling on the Pennsylvania Turnpike in Somerset County Saturday should be prepared for possible delays at the Allegheny Tunnel as single-lane, two-way traffic patterns will be in place, the turnpike commission said.

The westbound tunnel is slated to close from 3 p.m. to 11 p.m. Saturday. Two-way traffic will move inside the eastbound tunnel during this time.

The tunnel is located at milepost 122.

Turnpike officials said the closure is necessary for repair and maintenance work inside the tunnel. The schedule could change based on weather conditions.
