The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) invites the public to view plans regarding the PA 68 Dolby Street to Trout Run Project in Clarion County.

The purpose of the project is to increase mobility, accessibility and safety for pedestrians and motorists.  

This project involves the widening and realignment of PA 68 including the addition of a middle turn lane the entire length of the project limits and the replacement of the bridge that carries PA 68 over Trout Run in Clarion and Monroe Townships, Clarion County.  Additional work to be completed will include guide rail updates, drainage improvements and utility relocations. 

Traffic will be maintained during construction except during short-term flagging operations and potential short-term night/weekend detours. Construction is anticipated to begin in 2024. 

The presentation will be available for viewing and feedback April 12 - 30, 2021.  A comment form is available on the project page which allows you to communicate your comments, and concerns regarding the project.

In accordance with Governor Wolf’s COVID-19 mitigation efforts, the plans display will be held online only.  The purpose of the plans display for this project is to share preliminary information on the project’s status, schedule, design, and right-of-way acquisition. PennDOT representatives along with design consultants will be available to answer questions.
