PennDOT has announced a resurfacing project for Interstate 80 in Clarion and Jefferson Counties is starting May 5. This project also includes bridge work on Interstate 79 in Butler County and Interstate 80 in Clarion and Jefferson Counties.
The I80 project consists of a culvert replacement and a highway resurfacing project along I80 as well as other miscellaneous construction.

Also included with this project are the following Interstate 79 and Interstate 80 bridge epoxy overlays: Bridges on Interstate 79 over T-969 and State Route 68 in Butler County, Cranberry and Jackson Townships. Bridges on Interstate 80 bridges over Deer Creek/T-411, T-310 and State Route 4003 in Jefferson County and Brookville Borough.
