Allentown, PA – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) has lifted the speed limit and vehicle restrictions that were in place on several roadways in the region.

Due to the winter storm impacting the region, speed limit and vehicle restrictions were implemented in the region. All speeds are restored to their usual posted limits.

PennDOT is still treating roadways in the area and will continue until roads are clear.

Although PennDOT crews have been treating roadways, the department’s primary goal is to keep roads passable, and they will not be completely free of ice and snow. PennDOT will continue to treat roadways throughout the storm until precipitation stops and roads are clear.

While PennDOT recommends not traveling during winter storms, motorists can check conditions on more than 40,000 roadway miles, including color-coded winter conditions on 2,900 miles, by visiting www.511PA.com. 511PA, which is free and available 24 hours a day, provides traffic delay warnings, weather forecasts, traffic speed information and access to more than 1,200 traffic cameras.
