HARRISBURG, Pa. —
PennDOT has lifted vehicle and speed restrictions on south central Pennsylvania interstates but is still urging motorists to stay home if they can.
PennDOT released the following statement Tuesday morning:
While vehicle restrictions have been lifted in many areas of the state, several roadways in Northeast Pennsylvania still have restrictions in place, said the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) and Pennsylvania Turnpike Commission.

The following roadways have Tier 1 restrictions in place:
- Route 33 from Interstate 78 to Interstate 80;
- Interstate 78 from Route 33 to the New Jersey border;
- Interstate 81 from Interstate 80 to the New Jersey border; and
