The PA Turnpike is committed to creating an organization-wide culture of sustainability where all decisions take into account our economic, environmental and social impact.

Key sustainability initiatives include:

  • Installed our first solar microgrid – a tolling industry first –in New Stanton, Westmoreland County.
