Pittsburgh, PA – PennDOT District 11 is advising motorists that line painting operations on I-376 (Beaver Valley Expressway) in Beaver County, will occur Tuesday and Wednesday, July 20-21 weather permitting.

Lane restrictions will occur on the I-376 between Hopewell/Route 151 (Exit 48) and Center (Exit 42) interchanges as crews conduct line painting operations. Work will occur from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Tuesday and Wednesday.

Roadway line painting is an important part of PennDOT’s highway safety initiatives. Paint lines provide direction, delineation, and guidance to motorists.

Motorists who accidentally get paint on their vehicles should immediately wash the paint off with a high-pressure water stream and detergent.  Dried paint can be removed with de-natured alcohol and a soft cloth.  Generally, PennDOT is not responsible for paint on vehicles.

Motorists should use caution and be aware of changing traffic patterns when driving through the area.
