Weight Restriction Announced for Route 4018 in Sullivan County

​Montoursville, PA - The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) is advising motorists in Sullivan County that Dushore Overton Road/Overton Road (Route 4018) in Dushore Borough, Forks and Cherry townships will be posted with a permanent, year-round, 10-ton weight restriction.

A 10-ton weight limit will be placed on Dushore Overton Road/Overton Road between Taylor Hill Road (Route 4017) and South German Street (Route 220).

The posting is being made based on a traffic-and-engineering study indicating that this highway may be damaged by vehicles that exceed the restriction.

School buses, emergency vehicles and local-delivery trucks are exempted from the postings.

The restriction will be in effect once the required signs are erected by a PennDOT maintenance crew, anticipated before the end of August 2024.

Motorists can check conditions on major roadways by visiting www.511PA.com. 511PA, which is free and available 24 hours a day, provides traffic delay warnings, weather forecasts, traffic speed information and access to more than 1,000 traffic cameras. 511PA is also available through a smartphone application for iPhone and Android devices, by calling 5-1-1, or by following local accounts on X.
