Last year the Pennsylvania Depart
ment of Transportation marked
Harrisburg highways with alternate

Message boards and Keystone signs
will help Farm Show visitors along
these recommended routes into the
Farm Show and HACC parking lots.
Traffic heading north on 1-81 to
ward Harrisburg will be directed to
get off at Exit 22 onto Front Street.
Turn right onto Linglestown
Road, right onto Industrial Road
and follow that into the parking
lots.
Commuters travelling east on
Route 22/322 will take the Rock
ville Exit, go south on Front Street,
turn left on Linglestown Road
and right onto Industrial Road.
This leads to the parking lots.
Traffic heading south on 1-81 to
ward Harrisburg will take Exit 24,
turn right onto Progress Avenue,
turn right onto Elmerton Avenue
and continue straight a few miles to
the parking lots.
A rash of fatal accidents in con
struction zones around Harrisburg
this year has officials doing every
thing in their power to make the road
ways safer for motorists anc workers
alike. Most of the projects should'be
completed or suspended for the win
ter, except for an area on 1-81 near
Carlisle and a project on Routes 11-15
just above Harrisburg.
Motorists should also be advised
that turning lanes have been recon
