State College, PA – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) today issued an update on its cable median barrier installation project along more than 13 miles of roadway in Centre, Clinton, Mifflin, and Juniata counties.

All lane closures will be lifted by 6:00 AM Friday, September 6. No work is scheduled on either route that day due to a PSU home football game on Saturday, September 7.
