Route 6 Improvements Drive Two Million Dollar Upgrade
A long planned upgrade to Route 6 in northern Pennsylvania is underway with two million dollars in major improvements. A new concrete section of US 8 6 between Port Allegany and Smethport shortens the route by about ten miles and enhances highway quality. Another 400 mile stretch across the region gains a high quality section built at nearly half a million dollars, reducing overlap with US 6 and US 15. A four mile Wellsboro to Mansfield segment will be replaced this fall at a cost of 200 thousand dollars, creating an entirely new US 6 corridor between Mansfeld and Wellsboro. A highway association delegation will attend the annual meeting to highlight these improvements totaling roughly two million dollars.
