Abandoned Turnpike 2014 GoPro Drone Phantom 2



Now is the time to express your interest in turning this stretch into an official bike trail. If you think it is a good idea please forward your words of encouragement to Don at this address:

dschwartz@bedfordcountypa.org

He is working hard to make this a reality so please let him know that people have interest in this project.

History:

Originally planned as a railroad route construction began in early 1884 and continued until late 1885 when the project was scrapped. One of the nine originally planned tunnels was even finished and some of the others were close enough that workers could hear each other as they worked to meet in the middle.

In late 1934 an idea was introduced to use the original rail bed as a highway route and on October 27, 1938 the groundbreaking began. On October 1, 1940 at 12am the superhighway opened.

Unfortunately the designers and engineers underestimated the popularity of the personal automobile and by the 60's the tunnels began to create massive backups as the 4 lane highway dropped down to 2 lanes for the tunnels

After deciding to bypass Laurel Hill Tunnel and a large bypass around both Rays Hill Tunnel and Sideling Hill Tunnel they closed this stretch for good November 26, 1968 creating what is now known as "The Abandoned Turnpike"

THE TURNPIKE NEEDS OUR HELP. THERE WAS A MEETING REGARDING POSSIBLE FUNDING TO HELP BRING BACK TO LIFE THE ABANDONED TURNPIKE TO USE AS A RECREATIONAL TRAIL BY MEANS OF REPAIRING AND MAINTAINING THIS STRETCH.

ALL WE NEED TO DO TO HELP THIS ALONG IS WRITE A LITTLE BLURB ABOUT HOW YOU FEEL ABOUT THE PIKE AND HOW YOU THINK IT WOULD BE A GOOD IDEA TO FIX IT UP AND COULD CREATE A TOURIST ATTRACTION.

IF YOU CAN DO THIS AND EMAIL IT TO ME I WILL BE SURE IT GETS SENT TO THE RIGHT PERSON TO HELP MOTIVATE THE LOCAL GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS TO SEE HOW IMPORTANT THIS NATIONAL TREASURE REALLY IS.

PLEASE SEND ANY COMMENTS TO ME AT:

kylemills200@gmail.com

Thanks for helping us bring it back to life for future generations to enjoy!!!

Music is from YouTube's free music library
