Chipping and tarring starts on Renovo Road

CHAPMAN TOWNSHIP, PA – True to its word, PennDOT this week began seal coating Route 120 (the Renovo Road), starting just outside of Renovo Borough and heading south to Lock Haven. As previously noted, no detours are planned, but single-lane traffic will be in place and could lead to travel delays. PennDOT crews were working their way through Chapman Township on Thursday.

A final section of seal coating will be done along State Route 1002, Island Road in Lock Haven/Castanea, starting under the Constitution Bridge and eastward to the Second Island Bridge and back. The seal coating is weather dependent.

PennDOT says the chipping and tarring extends the life of roadways but motorists are not fans, based on social media postings.
