					<description><![CDATA[Bangor-area drivers should expect PennDOT lane restrictions with flagging on West Bangor Road/Lake Minsi Drive from July 15–17, 8 a.m.–3 p.m.]]></description>
										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>PennDOT District 5 is scheduling <strong>daytime lane restrictions with flagging</strong> for drivers in the Bangor area on <strong>West Bangor Road / Lake Minsi Drive</strong>.</p>
<p>The notice says the restrictions run <strong>July 15 through July 17, 2026</strong>, with the work zone active <strong>each day from 8:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.</strong> PennDOT also lists the segment as <strong>between Blue Valley Drive and Fox Gap Road</strong>, with work handled by PennDOT maintenance forces. PennDOT notes that <strong>rain can cause delays</strong>.</p>
<h2>Where the lane restrictions will be</h2>
<p>PennDOT’s road-work notice places the work on <strong>West Bangor Road / Lake Minsi Drive</strong> in Northampton County (Washington Township area), specifically <strong>between Blue Valley Drive and Fox Gap Road</strong>.</p>
<h2>When to expect slower travel</h2>
<p>Crews are scheduled to have the lane-restriction/flagging setup in effect <strong>8:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.</strong> on <strong>July 15, July 16, and July 17</strong>. Outside that daytime window, PennDOT says traffic patterns may differ.</p>
<h2>What nearby work could compound delays</h2>
<p>PennDOT’s Northampton County road-work listings also include other <strong>daytime lane restrictions</strong> 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.</p>
<p><strong>How to plan:</strong> Check <strong><a href="https://www.511pa.com/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">511PA</a></strong> before you leave for work or school during the <strong>8:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.</strong> window. Day-of lane configurations and delays can change as work progresses.</p>
