The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation has just advised The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey of a planned closure of westbound I-80, between exits 299 and 298 (about 12 miles west of the Delaware Water Gap Bridge).

The closure will be in effect today, Wednesday, December 14, from 10 am to 2 pm.

This closure is required so that state police can conduct an accident investigation/reconstruction into a prior incident.
