The road had been closed, in three phases, since Aug. 28 between Perry Highway (Route 19) and Nelson Run Road to reconstruct less than half a mile of roadway, according to a news release.

The work was part of an $8.3 million project to address eight roads throughout Allegheny County, the release said.
