Dunmore, PA – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) has lifted the speed limit restriction that has been in place on Interstate 81 from Schuylkill County to the PA/NY state line. Reduced speed limit restrictions remain in place on Interstate 84 and Interstate 380 due to current weather conditions.
Due to the winter storm impacting the region, speed limits were reduced earlier this afternoon to 45 mph on all interstates in the region.
PennDOT is still treating roadways in the area and will continue until roads are clear.
