From Pocono Township Facebook page 

We’ve heard the buzz and want to set the record straight—there is NOT a circle or roundabout proposed for the intersection of Route 611 & 715. Instead, the state plans to create a solution that goes through the mountain, improving traffic flow for our community.

In other updates, the current "Welcome to Pocono Township" sign will be coming down. New, updated signs will soon be installed in Bartonsville and Scotrun, bringing a fresh look to our township’s entrances!

We have already received many generous and wonderful donations! Let's keep it going! The Pocono Township Police Department is proud to announce that we are hosting our first Holiday Gift Drive. This will benefit Monroe County Children and Youth.
