Route 611 in Delaware Water Gap Temporarily Reopens
Route 611 in the Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area, closed since December 2022 due to a rockslide, will reopen temporarily through a compromise between PennDOT and the National Park Service. The agreement, facilitated by various officials including U.S. Rep. Matt Cartwright and PA Sen. Rosemary Brown, involves installing a temporary rockfall barrier to enable two-way traffic until a permanent solution is implemented. The collaborative effort aims to ease hardships for residents, businesses, and communities while safeguarding the environment. The project, expected to take 8-10 weeks post permit finalization, addresses the prolonged closure's impact on accessibility and local stakeholders. State and federal representatives, including Cartwright, played key roles in brokering the agreement to expedite the reopening process and ensure safety for motorists.
