The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) has implemented temporary lane restrictions on the northbound lanes of Interstate 79 in Erie County in connection with around-the-clock patching operations. 

The lane restrictions will be in place from Exit 166 (Route 6N, Albion/Edinboro) to the Interstate 90 Interchange. 

PennDOT says the work began on Monday, March 31 and will continue 24 hours a day until its completed. 

PennDOT is urging motorists to slow down when driving in work zones, and to be alert to changing conditions.
