PennDOT lane restrictions July 15–17 on West Bangor Rd near Lake Minsi

PennDOT District 5 is scheduling daytime lane restrictions with flagging for drivers in the Bangor area on West Bangor Road / Lake Minsi Drive.

The notice says the restrictions run July 15 through July 17, 2026, with the work zone active each day from 8:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. PennDOT also lists the segment as between Blue Valley Drive and Fox Gap Road, with work handled by PennDOT maintenance forces. PennDOT notes that rain can cause delays.

Where the lane restrictions will be

PennDOT’s road-work notice places the work on West Bangor Road / Lake Minsi Drive in Northampton County (Washington Township area), specifically between Blue Valley Drive and Fox Gap Road.

When to expect slower travel

Crews are scheduled to have the lane-restriction/flagging setup in effect 8:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. on July 15, July 16, and July 17. Outside that daytime window, PennDOT says traffic patterns may differ.

What nearby work could compound delays

PennDOT’s Northampton County road-work listings also include other daytime lane restrictions in the broader Bangor area during the summer maintenance period—so even if your delay isn’t caused by this exact segment, congestion can still build on connecting routes.

How to plan: Check 511PA before you leave for work or school during the 8:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. window. Day-of lane configurations and delays can change as work progresses.
