    Speed Limit Restored on Roadways in the Region

    January 01, 2026

    Montoursville, PA – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) has lifted the speed limit and right-lane-only commercial vehicle restrictions that were in place on several roadways in the region.

    • Due to the winter weather impacting the region, the speed limits were reduced to 45 mph on Interstate 80 between the Clinton/Union County line and the Columbia/Luzerne County line and the entire length of Interstate 180. All speeds are restored to their usual posted limits.

    PennDOT is still treating roadways in the area and will continue until roads are clear.

    Motorists can check conditions on more than 40,000 roadway miles, including color-coded winter conditions on 2,900 miles, by visiting www.511PA.com. 511PA, which is free and available 24 hours a day, provides traffic delay warnings, weather forecasts, traffic speed information and access to more than 1,200 traffic cameras.

    511PA is also available through a smartphone application for iPhone and Android devices, by calling 5-1-1, or by following regional X alerts.
