The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation
(PennDOT) today announced the launch of its online construction map
designed to help travelers pinpoint potential trouble spots for delays on
interstates and other major routes throughout the state.

“While a $1.3 billion construction season is good news for Pennsylvania in
terms of road and bridge improvements, there also exists the potential
for travel delays caused by construction work zones,” said State
Transportation Secretary Allen D. Biehler, P.E. “To help with travel
planning, we encourage motorists to visit our online construction map and
find the locations where travel delays may exist so they can plan
accordingly.”

The Web site for statewide work zone information for interstates and other
major routes can be found via the PA PowerPort at http://www.state.pa.us/
by typing “construction” as the keyword. Motorists can also get the
information from the PennDOT Web site directly at
http://www.dot.state.pa.us/ by clicking on the link, “Statewide
Construction Map.”
