HIGHSPIRE, PA. — Due to the increasing severity of the winter storm, the Pennsylvania Turnpike decided put speed restrictions in place at 8:30 p.m. tonight instead of midnight.
The turnpike has also broadened the scope of the reduced-speed zone to start at the New Stanton Interchange (#75) east to the Delaware River Bridge/New Jersey border.
In addition, the 45 mph restriction was also in effect on the entire Mon/Fayette Expressway (PA Turnpike 43) south of Pittsburgh starting at 8:30 as well as the Northeastern Extension from Mid County Exit #20 to Lehigh Valley Exit #56.
