Title: Lancaster County, PA The "Goat Path" through the years
Post by: jpi on February 18, 2015, 02:17:05 PM
Came accross some good ariel pics of what was going to be the PA 23 Expressway in Lancaster County until 1974 when funding dried up. I may incorporate this into my Central PA road meet planned for spring 2016.

The Goat Path was featured as part of Jeff's 2004 Harrisburg meet. It is definitely worth seeing.

Corey and I also checked out all of the over and underpasses for the Goat Path that we didn't cover in the 2004 meet on the way back from the 2005 State College meet.

That's right, I forgot Kitsko featured this in his meet but his was hosted in Harrisburg, mine will be hosted in York to initially check out the Mt Rose AVE construction, not sure on which restuarant but have a couple in mind, still not sure on a date but it will probably be sometime in April which will tie in with another "event" I will be attending in the Pittsburgh area. I was thinking we could venture over to Lancaster to check this out after what I have planned in York, then maybe head north to Harribsurg or even Reading.

Jeff's was officially the Harrisburg meet, but the lunch was based in Lancaster, with tour stops at the Goat Path, Reading (US 222 freeway construction) and Centralia.

It would've been nice to see the whole thing completed, but we'll never know now...

BTW, interesting articles!
