The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation announced that PennDOT maintenance crews in Franklin County are scheduled to clean up litter along Interstate 81 from the Maryland state line to the Cumberland County line just north of Exit 24 (Route 696/Fayette Street).
Weather permitting, litter cleanup will be performed in both directions of I-81 in Franklin County beginning Monday, March 31, and continue for at least the next two weeks. Cleanup crews will be working each day along the interstate from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m.
There will be no traffic restrictions. However, motorists should be alert and watch for workers and maintenance vehicles near the interstate mainline and ramps.
When work on the interstate is completed, crews will move cleanup activities to other roadways in the county.
