Harrisburg, PA – The lane restriction in place in the work zone on northbound Interstate 83 near Harrisburg has been lifted.
Northbound I-83 traffic was restricted to a single lane Friday night from just north of Union Deposit Road (Exit 48) to the I-81/I-83 split so traffic could be shifted to the newly constructed outside portion of the highway. The shift was completed and traffic is open to two lanes.
