True story. My wife has booked a flight in and my sister a flight out on Christmas Day 2013 so I could do a single airport run. Who would think PennDOT would work Christmas Day? Well, they had one lane closed on the Squirrel Hill Tunnel. We couldn't tell that they were doing a damn thing . . . just had one of the inbound lanes closed and were stacking up traffic like morning rush hour just for pure spite.
Sis barely made her flight.
PennDot is horrible. After I moved to York PA but was still working in Hunt Valley MD, one morning I left for work at my usual time and traffic was staking up on I83 just before the Glen Rock exit. The right lane was closed all the way to the MD line, some 10 mines - during morning rush hour. Why? Well a couple of PennDot workers were in a pickup truck riding the shoulder and spraying the side of the road for mosquitoes causing a 1 1/2hour traffic delay during morning rush hour. And that is just one of my many PennDot horror stories.
