1949 - Interstate 80 Opens Between Bloomsburg & Briar Creek


1949 was a banner year for the area. I-80 opened the nine mile stretch from Bloomsburg to Briar Creek. The roadway has been toll free since its inception and we hope it stays toll free.

This would be I-80 I think. Interstate 81 is closer to Hazleton.

Great website. I look forward to reading it!

I think you mean Route 11...that is the 3 lane that goes from Briar Creek to Bloomsburg.
