Clearfield, PA – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced the potential for delays on Route 1011 (Hickox/Ulysses Road) in Bingham Township, Potter County, later this week as Michels Pipeline, Inc., of Harrisburg, PA, completes excavation work for a natural gas line on behalf of National Fuel.

Starting Thursday, August 24, Michels will reduce traffic to a single lane between the intersections of Route 1013 (Bingham Center Road) and Whitney Hill Road. Flaggers in the roadway will enforce an alternating traffic pattern. Michels anticipates completing the work by the end of the week. PennDOT expects traffic impacts to be minimal but urges drivers to stay alert and to build extra time into their travel schedules to compensate.
