U.S. 219 is a major north-south route through western Pennsylvania.
It links I-68 in Maryland to the Pennsylvania Turnpike and I-80
providing important access to small cities, towns and rural communities.
Recognizing its importance to southwestern Pennsylvania, sections
of US 219 have been upgraded to a four-lane, limited access facility.
When this section is completed, the improved corridor will run continuously
between I-68 and US 22 providing a much needed transportation improvement
for southwestern-southcentral Pennsylvania.
The project team will study the area and develop several preliminary
corridor alternatives. Through engineering and environmental studies
and public involvement activities, the team will prepare a transportation
improvement study.
