Comrades, I want to alert those coming to the Northeast SxS via Montrose, Tunkhannock and Wyalusing that there’s a big resurfacing project on Irish Hill Road and significant delays are possible. I was out at Hidden Hollow today to meet some people and stopped/talked with the flaglady who told me the roadwork will continue this week. Here’s a suggested alternate for anyone who doesn’t mind driving on a good dirt road.
FROM LAWTON, drive 3.6 miles on 267N (past the usual left turn onto Irish Hill Road) and look for a white sign for “Pennsy Supply”. Turn left on that dirt road which is “SR 4012” and drive to the end. Turn right and you will be on Irish Hill Road and just a short distance from the right hand turn to Hidden Hollow. Again this alternate is a dirt road and anyone driving his ’55 Chevy with 20 hand rubbed coats of candy apple red lacquer (or similar) may not want to take it. Those who do use the alternate will see what goes on with the Marcellus Shale gas people putting in pipelines adjacent to that road.
I don’t think this road work will affect anyone coming from Vestal NY but I wasn’t on Irish Hill Road north of the turn to Hidden Hollow so I don’t know about that.
