Finding
[29 Pa.B. 6378]
Bradford County Pursuant to the provisions of 71 P. S. Section 2002(b), the Secretary of Transportation makes the following written finding:
The Department of Transportation has designated the River Street Extension Alternative as the selected alternative for the Central Bradford County Traffic Improvement Project. The project involves the construction of a new roadway and intersection to connect S.R. 2027 to River Street, just south of the US 6 bridge in Towanda. Existing River Street would be reconstructed to provide a two-lane, two-direction roadway from just south of the US 6 bridge north along the west side of the Susquehanna River to Chestnut Street. This alternative would also include the construction of a new two-lane, two-direction roadway extension along the Susquehanna River from Chestnut Street to Pratt Avenue. The extension would then follow a northwesterly direction to the intersection of US 6 and Patterson Boulevard.
The River Street Extension Alternative best meets the identified project needs to reduce traffic/truck volume and congestion on Main Street and York Avenue, improve safety on Main Street and York Avenue, improve the quality of life in downtown Towanda, and support community enhancements. All practicable means to avoid or minimize harm to the environment have been adopted.
No adverse environmental effect is likely to result from the subject project.
BRADLEY L. MALLORY,
Secretary
