News Release: Old Mine Road Repairs Resume between Millbrook and Flatbrookville
|
BUSHKILL, PA- A one-mile
section of Old Mine Road on the New Jersey side of Delaware Water Gap
National Recreation Area is about to get some extensive and much-needed
repairs. Preliminary work has begun on a section of Old Mine Road between
Millbrook Village and Flatbrookville (mile-marker 13 to 14). Beginning
September 9 the road will be closed during the week and will be re-opened
each Friday evening by 7 pm. The road will be open on weekends and work is
expected to be completed by mid-November. The weekday road closure will
allow workers to complete the project in less time and with fewer hazards
for both the workers and travelers. The $3.1 million project is funded through the Federal Lands Transportation Program. The project will completely rehabilitate the roadway from the sub-base up to the driving surface and improve stormwater management and drainage systems such as ditches, pipes, and culverts. According to Richard McKenna, park engineer, “This comprehensive project will increase the roadway’s longevity by correcting long-standing problems rather than simply patching potholes or adding another layer of asphalt. When completed, the improved design will also protect natural resources within the project area, including several wetlands and the Big Flatbrook Creek, one of New Jersey’s highest quality cold water fisheries.” “Old Mine Road is one of the park’s premier cultural resources and this rehabilitation project will help us maintain it in good condition for years to come,” said Superintendent Sula Jacobs. “It serves as the primary access to the New Jersey side of the park for visitors, residents, and business owners and many people visit the park just to take a drive on Old Mine Road and enjoy the scenery and historic sites along the way.” Old Mine Road is one of the oldest roads in continuous use in the country and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980. Blue Mountain Lakes Road, Blue Mountain Lakes, Crater Lake, and Rivers Bend Group Campground will be closed weekdays while work is completed. Those sites will be open on Saturday’s and Sunday’s throughout the duration of the project. Emergency vehicles will be granted passage as needed. For updates on the project and road closure visit the park’s website at www.nps.gov/dewa; follow us on Facebook at www.Facebook.com/DelWaterGapNPS; or call Park Headquarters between 8:30 am and 4:30 pm weekdays at (570) 426-2457. About the National Park Service: More than 20,000 National Park Service employees care for America’s 419 national parks and work with communities across the nation to help preserve local history and create close-to-home recreational opportunities.
