Pennsylvania Route 307 - Old Alignment in Scranton and Dunmore

Old Alignment in Scranton and Dunmore

Prior to 1989, PA 307 followed an older alignment bypassing Downtown Scranton. On Moosic Street, just north of I-81, PA 307 turned right on Harrison Avenue, starting a concurrency with US 11. Together they crossed the Harrison Avenue bridge and continued about a mile to Myrtle Street. PA 307 and US 11 turned right on Myrtle for one block then left on Wheeler Avenue. After entering the Borough of Dunmore and crossing the old Erie Railroad tracks, the pair turned left on Cherry Street then beared right onto South Blakely Street, entering Downtown Dunmore. They turned left onto Green Ridge Street, re-entering Scranton in the Green Ridge section of the city. At the end of Green Ridge Street at North Scranton Junior High School, they turned right onto Main Avenue entering the Providence section of the city. After a half mile, they turned left onto West Market Street. PA 307 left US 11 by turning left onto Keyser Avenue, passing under the North Scranton Expressway, and turning right onto the Morgan Highway, re-entering its current alignment.
