Accidents Continue at Dangerous Route 522 277 Intersection
Five accidents occurred near the Route 522 and Route 277 intersection, including a two-vehicle collision and a skid that overturned a vehicle. Damage was estimated at 350 dollars with no injuries. A separate late-night skid south of the intersection left a car able to depart under its own power. The Funkhouser property removal years ago narrowed sightlines and raised calls for straightening the curve to prevent further crashes.
