Heads up, drivers! Roadwork on Water Street in Washingtonville Borough is set to throw a wrench in the usual parking situation this Friday. The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) is gearing up to do some much-needed crack sealing on Route 54, which means parking restrictions aplenty.

The no-parking zone will stretch both ways from Front Street to Strawberry Ridge Road, say officials. The work is scheduled to run from 7:00 AM to 3:00 PM, assuming Mother Nature doesn't throw a curveball. Commuters should prepare to quickly alter their routes and parking plans as they won't be able to leave their cars on Water Street during these hours.

According to PennDOT, "Motorists can expect single lane conditions with flagging where work is being performed." So, while you might be able to sneak through the area, you'll certainly need to take it slow and expect some stop-and-go disruptions courtesy of the flaggers directing traffic.

Local authorities are urging motorists to stay alert and drive cautiously near the work zone. With construction workers present, it's especially important to keep your wits about you and to always carefully exercise patience. For those driving through Washingtonville this Friday, remember to respect the roadwork and the folks fixing up our streets.
