Millcreek Township is partnering with PennDOT, The City of Erie and other Erie County organizations to provide a single source of communication for April 8 Eclipse Day traffic and alerts at bit.ly/erieeclipsealerts .
“It’s all about the Erie County residents and preventing confusion when time matters most,” said Millcreek Township Communications Coordinator Sam Peterson, “a single source of communication across Erie County will give everyone equal access to information from different areas without having to check a frustrating amount of communication channels.”
The listing is hosted through PennDOT’s 511pa.com/eclispe24 webpage and will be updated frequently throughout the day as traffic conditions warrant. Officials across Erie County, including Millcreek Township, the City of Erie and PennDOT will relay relevant information.
Please note that this will not replace any emergency alert systems already set up by the county or traditional methods of communication such as social media from individual organizations. This is simply a way to combine communications from the projected busiest areas on Eclipse Day.
