Pennsylvania has decided it's time to stop extending commercial vehicle driver licenses and learner permits. The formerly 2020 expired documents, which gained extra time, will end March 31.

Mother Nature has thrown surprises our way this winter, but Lower Pottsgrove's winter road services budget has held up pretty well, its manager told the township Board of Commissioners.
The National Weather service is keeping a winter weather advisory in place Friday until 4 p.m. for parts of Montgomery and Chester counties, due to freezing rain that made roads slippery overnight.
At mid-day Thursday, AccuWeather updated its outlook for the winter storm hitting western Montgomery County and southeastern PA. Snow totals over a 24-hour period are proving surprising.
PennDOT says full overnight closures are planned March 10-12 for bridge beam installations on South Pleasant View and Park roads across the highway within Lower Pottsgrove. Detours will be in effect.
Speeds on the area's most heavily used four-lane limited-access highways, including the length of U.S. Route 422 from King of Prussia to the Berks County line, have been limited during the snowstorm.
Lower Pottsgrove is advertising for bidders to conduct re-surfacing work using an oil-and-stone-chip mixture later this year on three township-owned roads. See which ones. Bids should be opened Feb. 24.
If you plan to travel Monday on westbound U.S. Route 422 through Lower Pottsgrove, anticipate closure of one of its westbound lanes there for bridge construction work, PennDOT said.
