Residents press PennDOT after years-long road disrepair cited; board to invite county manager
Summary
Residents told the board that state-maintained roads near commercial properties remain in disrepair and urged action; staff said Nicole contacted PennDOT and the county PennDOT manager, Jay Borger, has been invited to attend a township meeting to discuss the issues.
Residents and board members raised continued concerns about the condition of state-maintained roads leading to local businesses and residential areas, saying repairs are lagging by years.
A resident described the contrast between building clean-ups and unchanged road conditions, and said PennDOT appears to be years behind in its repairs. Staff responded that the concern had been reported through PennDOT's online system and that Nicole had contacted PennDOT; staff said the concern was routed to Monroe County offices and to an assistant manager. Staff also said they had reached out to Jay Borger, the PennDOT county manager, and invited him to attend a township meeting to hear residents' concerns.
Board members said they would continue to press for a meeting with PennDOT representatives and to document the township's repair requests.
