Williamsport mayor, PennDOT announce stop sign installation at busy intersection

Williamsport, Pa. — PennDOT and The City of Williamsport announced today that a stop sign will be installed on the southbound lane of Market Street at the intersection with Washington Boulevard. A PennDOT maintenance crew is scheduled to install the stop sign next week while the contractor for the City of Williamsport installs the pavement markings. Drivers can expect lane restrictions between Hepburn Street and Washington Boulevard during daylight hours.
