​Montoursville, PA – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) is advising motorists in Sullivan County that Dushore Overton Road/Overton Road (Route 4018) in Dushore Borough, Forks and Cherry townships will be posted with a permanent, year-round, 10-ton weight restriction.

A 10-ton weight limit will be placed on Dushore Overton Road/Overton Road between Taylor Hill Road (Route 4017) and South German Street (Route 220).

The posting is being made based on a traffic-and-engineering study indicating that this highway may be damaged by vehicles that exceed the restriction.

School buses, emergency vehicles and local-delivery trucks are exempted from the postings.

The restriction will be in effect once the required signs are erected by a PennDOT maintenance crew, anticipated before the end of August 2024.
