Uniontown, PA – Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) District 12 is announcing daily, overnight single-lane restrictions on Route 30 (Lincoln Highway), eastbound and westbound, between Route 4002 (North Greengate Road) and Route 119 (Main Street) in the City of Greensburg, Westmoreland County.

The restrictions are scheduled to begin Monday night, November 18, will recur nightly, from 8:00 PM to 6:00 AM, and are anticipated until the morning of Saturday, December 21, depending on weather and operational conditions.
