The day after the 60-car pileup that killed three people, Interstate 78 in Lebanon County has reopened to traffic.

Pennsylvania Department of Transportation spokesman Greg Penny said that as of 7 a.m. Sunday, the highway was opened again in both directions.

The crash occurred about a half mile west of Exit 8 on I-78 around 9:30 a.m. Saturday after a sudden snow squall created whiteout conditions.

About 60 vehicles were involved in the crash, including a large number of tractor trailers, closing the highway in both directions, Penny said.

More than 50 victims were transported to hospitals all around the area, including the Penn State Milton S. Hershey Medical Center, Good Samaritan in Lebanon, the Reading Hospital, Penn State Health St. Joseph, Pottsville Hospital, Lehigh Valley Hospital, Holy Spirit and Pinnacle Medical Center.

About 130 stranded but uninjured passengers were transported to the Jonestown Fire Hall where Red Cross volunteers provided assistance.

Several area tow companies assisted in removing vehicles form the highway. Drivers can contact the Pennsylvania State Police at Jonestown at 717-865-2194 to find the location of their vehicles.
