2019 Official Road Map

With the Department of Transportation having printed an official road map for every year of the past decade, I figured there would be one for 2019. My suspicions were correct.  I stopped by the DMV and picked up the last one of the 2010s decade.  In addition, it makes the 2010s the first one in 50 years to have a map published every year. The following are the changes in the 2019 official Pennsylvania map since the 2018 edition:

Allegheny County/Washington County
PA Turnpike 576 shown as under construction from US 22 to Interstate 79

PA Turnpike 576 between US 22 and Interstate 79 is shown under construction on the 2019 official road map

Bucks County
Interstate 95 and Pennsylvania Turnpike interchange now complete and Interstate 95 routed over the Delaware River Bridge
Interstate 295 replaces Interstate 95 north of the Turnpike to New Jersey

The I-95/I-295 interchange with the Pennsylvania Turnpike and I-295 are shown on the 2019 official road map

Somerset County
US 219 expressway completed between Meyersdale and Somerset

US 219 is indicated as completed on the 2019 official road map

York County
PA 297 replaces the entire length of PA 295 to eliminate the numeric duplication with the newly signed Interstate 295.

PA 297 replaces the PA 295 designation

The map has the same dimensions as the previous year’s.  It also features the same amenities, such as the tourism slogan and “2019” in a keystone.  This year’s cover picture is of a family taking a selfie on a ski slope.  However, there is one noticeable error on the cover.  The Department of Transportation’s website is erroneously printed as “PENNDOT.COM” in the upper-right corner, whereas it has been a “.gov” for the past few years.  You may view the 2019 official road map on PennDOT’s site PDF icon.
