There will be lane restrictions on Route 2004 (River Road) in Jenkins Township, between Saylor Avenue and the Eighth Street Bridge, from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday for paving.

The traveling public is encouraged to use alternate routes. Work is weather dependent.

When encountering a work zone, motorists are advised to drive the posted speed limit, turn on their headlights, pay close attention to signs and flaggers, and avoid all distractions. In high-traffic locations, motorists are encouraged to use both lanes of travel to the merge point and take turns merging into the open lane.
