PennDOT District 12 would like to inform motorists of the extended closure of a section of Route 201 in Rostraver Township, Westmoreland County. The closure will be located between Route 136 and Pollack Run Road. The closure will begin on Monday, July 6 at 6 AM and will continue until Friday, August 14.

The closure will be in place to allow crews to perform slide repairs. Crews are taking this time to also perform pipe replacement and pavement repairs. A marked detour will be in place using Route 136, Route 51 and Route 201.

Work on this project will be in accordance with Centers for Disease Control and state Department of Health guidance as well as a project-specific COVID-19 safety plan, which will include protocols for social distancing, use of face coverings, personal and job-site cleaning protocols, management of entries to the jobsite, and relevant training.
