EMPORIUM — The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation is advising motorists that temporary traffic signals will be in place soon on a section of Route 120 in Cameron County.

Due to slide issues, PennDOT is restricting the eastbound lane on a section of Route 120 between the village of Driftwood and the Route 120/Route 872 intersection. Drivers moving through this area will encounter an alternating traffic pattern, enforced by temporary traffic signals. The signals will be placed today and be fully operational on Wednesday.

Drivers will also encounter advance signage and message boards alerting them of “Traffic signal ahead” and “Be prepared to stop.”

This traffic pattern will be in effect until a construction project to resolve the slide issue can take place. PennDOT reminds drivers to always buckle up and obey posted speed limits.
