Interstate 80 – Section 540 Reconstruction

PennDOT sought to reconstruct 15.5 miles of Interstate 80, from the Clearfield County line to the westbound rest area, known as Section 540.

Erdman Anthony was selected to provide construction inspection services for the project.

The design-build project included:

• Complete removal and replacement of the concrete pavement structure
• Drainage
• Delineation
• Signage
• Guide rails along I-80 westbound

The project also involved pavement overlay along I-80 eastbound, bridge-preservation activities on five structures, and other miscellaneous construction.

The reconstruction in this section of I-80 has improved the overall infrastructure as well as travel for local and regional commuter traffic; local, regional, and national freight; and local and regional tourism traffic.
