(Darlington, PA) A three-vehicle crash that occurred on Monday at the intersection of Route 51 and Route 168 in Darlington is renewing calls from drivers and neighbors to have a red light installed at the intersection. 

This crash was reported at around 7 a.m. on Monday and three people were taken to the hospital as a result of it.

According to State Representative Roman Kozak, South Beaver residents have recorded approximately 90 crashes at the intersection over the past 20 years, resulting in countless injuries and five fatalities.  

Kozak reached out to PennDOT for action, and PennDOT responded by confirming that they will conduct a safety study of the intersection. 

PennDOT plans to begin this safety study in 2027.  

Residents and state representatives are saying that they will continue advocating for improvements so they can prevent further accidents. 

Kozak also confirmed that he and State Representative Josh Kail will work with South Beaver so they can help secure funding for that study.
