By DAVID HULSE

PORT JERVIS — The river valley’s state legislators on February 28 introduced the bill that will finalize New York State Department of Transportation (DOT) recommendations that Route 97 be made part of the state’s scenic byway system.

Senator John Bonacic (R-40) came to the southern terminus of Route 97 on March 4 to announce the designation bill to be sponsored by him and Assemblyman Jacob Gunther (DC-98). The bill will include the length of the highway north from Port Jervis to the Delaware/Fremont boundary and from the Town of Hancock/ Village of Hancock boundary to the northern terminus at Route 17.
