Signed
in 1954 on the original US 611 alignment when its route was changed to cross the Delaware
River into New Jersey and return to Pennsylvania over the Delaware Water
Gap Toll Bridge. In 1963, the northern terminus was moved from
Delaware Water Gap to Tannersville because US 611's designation was placed
on Interstate 80 to the current Exit 299. |
