Lane Restriction Next Week on NB I-81 in Cumberland County

Contractor to perform emergency shoulder repair

Harrisburg, PA – Motorists in Cumberland County are advised they will encounter a lane closure next week on northbound Interstate 81 due to an emergency shoulder repair.

Weather permitting, the contractor will close the right lane of northbound I-81 at Mile Marker 32.9 on Tuesday, September 14. The closure is expected to be in place from 9 AM to 3 PM so shoulder repairs can be completed. Motorists should be alert and drive with caution through the area.

This work is within the limits of a pavement preservation project which includes milling, resurfacing, base repairs, concrete patching, guiderail upgrades, pavement markings, and minor bridge work on I-81 in Southampton, Shippensburg, South Newton, and Penn townships. The work limits for this project are from the Franklin County Line in Shippensburg Township to the Kutz Road bridge in Penn Township, Cumberland County.
