One resident says he woke up much earlier than he would have liked.

"I heard hammering so I figured something's broke," said resident Dave.

Because of the work being done, Authorities say Mount Carmel Avenue is closed between Limekiln Pike and Easton Road.

This is about a half mile away from the Glenside train station. SEPTA says regional rail service is not affected.

Repairs should be completed by lunchtime.
