PennDOT is asserting modifications to its 511PA providers, which give statewide journey info resembling street closures, site visitors situations and building tasks.
The web site and app have new customization choices. If customers create an account, they’ll plot their route and obtain site visitors alerts by way of e-mail, textual content messages, or audio alerts within the app's “Driving Mode” function. Customers should replace their app to get this new model.
