If your travel plans include Interstate 80 in Mercer County next week, you might need to allow a little more time for the commute.

PennDOT has announced that a westbound travel lane of Interstate 80 in East Lackawannock Township, Mercer County will be closed next week as crews conduct patching operations to repair deteriorated pavement.

The work will be conducted near the Interstate 79 interchange beginning on Monday, June 12, 2023, through Thursday, June 15, 2023, weather permitting.

The left passing lane will remain open to traffic.
