A record 155 miles of interstate expressways will open for Pennsylvania travelers by year end. When complete 1,318 of 1,576 miles will be in use, up from 130 miles in 1968. Additional projects move from drawing boards to construction, with 38 more miles opening and new segments in the Philadelphia Pittsburgh corridor. Interstate 79 north south, from the New York border to Harrisburg, and I-81 from the New York line to Harrisburg will be largely traffic signal free, with I-81 extending to 165 miles to Harrisburg once remaining sections are finished. An 18 mile stretch of I-81 from Scranton to Pocono Manor opens in Fall 1969. Interstates are shown to save time, reduce costs, and lower accident potential. eight open miles yield one fewer fatality annually.
