    Concrete Rehabilitation on I-99 to Start October 5

    October 01, 2026

    Clearfield, PA – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced work to rehabilitate the concrete pavement on Interstate 99 (I-99) between mile marker 58 and exit 80/Harrison Road is set to begin on Monday, October 5. This project will restore and rehabilitate the approach slabs of several bridges along Interstate 99 between mile markers 58 and 79, improving the ride quality and extending their service life while enhancing safety for motorists.

    Starting Monday, drivers should expect short-term single-lane closures along I-99 southbound through this stretch between 7:00 PM and 6:00 AM. PennDOT urges drivers to exercise caution when traveling through all work zones, to obey posted speed limits and work zone signage, and to always buckle up.

    PennDOT anticipates the lane closures will transition to northbound lanes in a few weeks with work for this construction season continuing until Thanksgiving. All construction schedules are subject to change due to weather or other unforeseen circumstances.

    Overall work on this contract includes paving, concrete patching and bridge deck repairs, crack sealing, line painting and miscellaneous construction. Merlo, Inc. of Mineral Point, PA, is the contractor on this $4.1 million project. PennDOT anticipates completion November 2027.
