​Uniontown, PA - Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) District 12 is announcing that portions of the following roadways are currently closed due to downed utility/tree in wires and flooding:

Washington County

  • Route 1059 (Sugar Run Road) between Petticoat Lane and Cooper Road in Nottingham Township due to downed utility.
  • Route 2023 (Grange Road/Van Voorhis Hazelkirk Road/Bentleyville Road) between Ginger Hill Road and Shannon Road in Carroll Township due to downed tree in wires.

Westmoreland County

  • Route 1007 (Ross Mountain Park Road) between Mountain View Road in Fairfield Township and Shrum Hill Road in Saint Clair Township due to flooding.

  • Route 3039 (Second Avenue/Robertson Road/Robertson Street/First Avenue) between Blackburn Street in West Newton Borough and Lowber Road in Sewickley Township due to downed tree in wires.
