OIL CITY, Pa. – The following state roads in PennDOT’s northwest region have been closed to through traffic due to flooding and related damage to trees and utility lines.
The roads will remain closed until water rescinds and any needed repairs can be made. Motorists can check www.511PA.com for the latest updates on flood-related closures and restrictions.
PennDOT urges motorists to be alert to water on roadways, obey warning signs and traffic control devices, and never drive through flooding or standing water on roads. Shallow, swiftly flowing water can wash a car from a roadway. Also, the roadbed may not be intact under the water.
