CLEARFIELD – PennDOT District 2 will open all northbound lanes of I-99 to traffic sometime in the afternoon of Dec. 17. At that time, southbound lanes from Port Matilda to Bald Eagle will also open. Crews have been working through adverse weather this weekend in order to get the lanes open to traffic.
As motorists approach Skytop, the two northbound lanes will narrow to one lane, with traffic merging back onto current U.S. Route 322.
Both southbound lanes from the Port Matilda interchange to Bald Eagle will also open. Southbound lanes in the Skytop area will remain closed to daily traffic but will continue to be used by construction vehicles. Route 322 along Skytop will remain open for local traffic and access to businesses.
Information on the I-99 remediation can be found on the Web. Click on More News & Media and choose I-99/Pyrite Information.
