THANK YOU!

Thank you to this wonderful community for allowing me to serve as an officer for you the last 2 years! Thank you to those community leaders that came together to make our events AMAZING! It is with GREAT sadness that I have to say my time with Cresson Borough Police Department has come to an end. I have to focus on my family while they are little. We do have one final community event that we have been working on, until the next group of officers take over. For more information on National Night Out in Lilly Borough, please follow officer Lindsay, as this page will be shut down soon.

Thank you again for the wonderful time here in Cresson!

Level Road bridge project update...

U.S. 22 westbound will be closed from 8 p.m. this Monday, June 30, to 5 a.m. the next day; and U.S. 22 eastbound will be closed from 8 p.m. this Tuesday, July 2, to 5 a.m. the next morning between the Route 53-Cresson/Lilly exit and the Summit exit.

The suggested detour will route traffic from U.S. 22 east and West 2nd Street to the Admiral Peary Highway and back to U.S. 22 east at the Summit Interchange.

The closure and detour will allow contractors to set beams as part of the Cresson Township project, which should be completed this coming August.
