ALERT; NEW TRAFFIC PATTERN + REMINDER: South Street Bridge Closed!
The South Street Bridge is closed for demolition and total
reconstruction, which is estimated to take two years. The entire bridge
will be closed, from Convention Avenue and 27th Street, including the
on-and-off ramps connecting South Street and I-76. South Street is one
way westbound only.
NEW PATTERN: Civic Center Blvd. becomes one way, south west, away from
the Museum, at the intersection with Convention Avenue, which is the
stop light by the Penn Tower Hotel. When traveling toward the Museum on
Convention Ave. after the turn off of University Avenue: you must take
the first right, after the Hospital Parking Garage, onto Health
Sciences Drive. This will intersect with Convention Avenue by the Penn
Tower Garage, and will lead you to the Parking Garage by the
Museum. For more information on the South Street Bridge Closure,
and the new traffic pattern, visit one of the following: find an
