Clearfield, PA – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced it will change the traffic pattern on I-80 westbound at the site of a bridge replacement project between mile markers 165 and 166 in Centre County on Friday, August 9. This project consists of roadway improvements to enhance the ride quality of Interstate 80, Route 1010 (Huber Ridge Road), and Sand Ridge Road and to replace four bridges spanning Huber Ridge and Sand Ridge roads to improve their overall condition rating.
PennDOT urges drivers traveling this span of I-80 westbound to expect delays while the contractor transitions from a left (passing) lane closure to a right (travel) lane closure. Pennsylvania State Police will be on-site to assist with the traffic switch. The contractor made this switch in the eastbound lanes on Friday, July 26, and that pattern will remain in place.
Overall work on this project consists of concrete and asphalt paving on Interstate 80, Hubler Ridge, and Sand Ridge roads, milling and paving, drainage improvements, guide rail installation, pavement marking, and miscellaneous construction. Glenn O. Hawbaker, Inc. of State College, PA, is the contractor for this $22 million project that will continue through the 2026 construction season.
