The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced today that line painting is scheduled on various routes in Cumberland County.
Weather permitting, line painting will be performed nightly between the hours of 9:00 PM and 6:00 AM on the following routes:
- Route 15
- Interstate 83
- Route 581
This will be a mobile operation. Motorists should be alert and watch for slow-moving line painting equipment on the roadway.
To avoid getting paint on your vehicle, here are a few tips:
- Stay back 500 feet from our line-painting equipment
- Don’t drive on the wet paint lines
- Don’t pass the trucks in the paint train
- Please be patient. The paint truck will pull over periodically to let traffic pass.
