Indiana, PA – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) is announcing upcoming lane restrictions with flaggers as the new traffic signals in the City of Butler are turned on.

State Route 8/Main Street from Penn Street to Wayne Street (State Route 356) will have flaggers present to intermittently stop traffic in 15-minute increments for the new traffic signal turn on procedures. Motorists should expect delays during this timeframe.  This work duration is expected to occur over five days on May 30 and 31 and the following week June 6, 7 and 8, 2023.

Nine signals were replaced between the intersections of Route 8 and Pittsburgh Road to Penn Street.

Bruce-Merrilees Electrical Company of New Castle, PA is completing the $2.2 million dollar project.
