Sen. Brown Announces Agreement Between PennDOT and National Park Service on Route 611 Closure

MONROE – Sen. Rosemary M. Brown (R-40) announced today that an agreement has been reached between the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) and the National Park Service to begin temporary work on Route 611 in the Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area. The agreement marks a significant step forward in reopening the roadway which has been closed since December 6, 2022, causing substantial disruption to residents, businesses and commuters. “I am absolutely thrilled to share that after extensive discussions and collaborative efforts, PennDOT and the National Park Service have agreed on a temporary solution to reopen Route 611,” said Brown.

Route 611 in Delaware Water Gap to reopen soon after being closed since 2022

After waiting nearly 21 months for relief, people who depend on using Route 611 through the Delaware Water Gap may finally get some relief. U.S. Rep. Matt Cartwright’s office announced Friday afternoon that PennDOT and the National Park Service have reached a compromise to reopen the highway that was closed in December 2022 because of a rockslide in the Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area. PennDOT says it will take about eight to 10 weeks to complete the project and get traffic flowing once permits are finalized. NPS confirmed the permitting process would be expedited because the project is temporary and not directly impacting resources.
