This, except I would avoid the stretch of I-81 from Harrisburg to Scranton due to construction and road conditions. The last time I did this stretch it was pretty rough. Maybe a PA member can update this info.

There is about a 10 mile stretch about 10-15 miles north of Pottsville that is one lane on both sides with stopped traffic during midday due to paving construction.

At least there was last week. Coming south before 10am was one lane but flowed nicely. Returning north around lunch time was stop and go, added about 15 mins- mostly due to rubberneckers who have never seen paving equipment :R

We were on about 40+ mile stretch of I-81. Beautiful scenery, great driving and traffic flow, except for that construction.

We got off I-81 about 50 miles south of Scranton, can't tell you anything about that stretch, sorry.
