Motorists surprised by the newly installed traffic signals in Belle Vernon Borough near the I-70 ramp will only have to get used to them for the time being. According to PennDOT District 12 Safety Press Officer Melissa Maczko the traffic signals at the I-70 ramp intersection with Route 906 are temporary as they are part of the Route 201 bridge project. As part of the project, Route 201 will need to be detoured to complete the work.
