Clearfield, PA – As heavy rainfall continues to fall across the state today, the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) in District 2 is alerting drivers to several closures due to flooding. Closures currently in effect include:
Centre County
- Route 1002 (Marsh Creek Road) between the intersections of Howard Divide Road and Route 150 in Curtin and Liberty townships
Clearfield County:
- Route 219 in Burnside Township between the intersections of Solley Road and Rager Road.
- Route 3004 (Sylvis Road) in Burnside Township between the intersections of Route 219 and Line Road.
- Route 3005 (Cherry Corner Road) in Greenwood Township between the intersections of Route 969 and Watts Road.
Mifflin County:
- Route 103 in Wayne Township between the intersection of Bridge Street and Sugar Ridge Road.
PennDOT will issue updates as needed throughout the day. It also cautions motorists to never drive through flooded roadways, as it takes just two feet of fast-moving water to float a car. Anyone who drives around barriers intended to close a road can face increased penalties if emergency responders are called to rescue motorists who disregard traffic control signs.
