Lewistown Narrows to be fully opened Wednesday – CDT
  |
At last! The reconstruction of US 22/322 east of Lewistown is complete and expected to open on Wednesday. This section had been only two lanes which was dangerous and often backed up. This will be a real relief for that corridor which is now four lanes wide between I-81 near Harrisburg and Seven Mountains. In the last eight years, there have been three really important improvements to US 22/322 northwest of Harrisburg:
- Bypass around Milroy and Reedsvile (Erica’s hometown)
- Dauphin Bypass
- Lewistown Narrows
Between State College and Harrisburg, the only two-lane stretch left will be US 322 between Boalsburg and Seven Mountains. As I have mentioned before, that is a ways off for a variety of reasons. If/when that ever happens, I’d like to see I-78 extended along the corridor. If not that, exit numbers based on US 322 mileposts ought to be installed.
