Pennsylvan ia Turnpike Western extension traffic tops expectations
The Pennsylvania Turnpike Commission reports the 87 mile Western extension traffic has exceeded expectations. Spot checks show more than anticipated use as the 50 mph limit is removed where shoulders and guard rails are finished. About 50,000 vehicles per day use the turnpike, with heavy westbound travel to avoid Pittsburgh congestion. The extension ends near the Ohio border, with future links planned to Langhorne and a Delaware River crossing near Bristol to connect with the New Jersey Turnpike.
