PennDOT has lifted the speed limit restrictions that were in place on several roadways in the region.
Due to the winter storm impacting the region, speed limits were reduced to 45 mph. Many speeds are restored to their usual posted limits except for Interstate 80 in Carbon and Monroe counties, Interstate 380 in Monroe County.
They will remain at 45 mph until further notice.
PennDOT is continuing to treat roadways in the area and will continue until roads are clear.
