BREEZEWOOD — The Pennsylvania Turnpike Commission advises motorists that an 86-mile stretch of the turnpike will be closed in both directions overnight starting at 11 p.m. on Saturday between the New Stanton, Exit 75, and Breezewood, Exit 161, interchanges. The roadway will reopen at approximately 6 a.m. on Sunday.
