The Issue

PLEASE READ THE LATEST UPDATE

Neighbors and Visitors,

There is a plan to close exit 114 (Wurtsboro Village exit) off route 17 by the Department of Transportation when Route 17 is converted to 1-86 in the next couple years. The long story short is that this plan was not widely publicized and a watchdog group recently uncovered it so TIME IS VERY SHORT to attempt to protest this decision and save Wurtsboro Village from becoming another Parksville- a once thriving Catskill Town which became a ghost town when Route 17 bypassed them.

We need your signature now! NYSDOT has only given us until the 28th to get signatures on this petition to show support for keeping EXIT 114 open. Please sign and share. You do not need to be a resident of Wurtsboro. You just have to be concerned about the closing of this exit and the economic and public safety impact it will have on the community.

Thank you for your support!

Friends of Wurtsboro
