HARRISBURG, March 7 – State Rep. Maureen Madden said new grant funding of $1.4 million has been awarded to improve roadways in Mount Pocono Borough and Pocono Township.
Mount Pocono Borough was awarded $600,000 for improvements to State Route 611 and Pine Hill Road.
The Pocono Mountains Industrial Park Authority received two grants totaling $800,000 to improve the intersection at State Route 611 and Bartonsville Avenue and to make safety improvements to exits 298-299 in Pocono Township.
“It is important to keep residents safe during their daily travels and these projects will be beneficial to everyone who uses these roadways,” said Madden, D-Monroe. “I would like to thank the Commonwealth Financing Authority for approving these grants through the Multimodal Transportation Fund.”
