Summary Despite the best efforts from many fronts, plans to widen Pennsylvania's Route 22 are unlikely to be fulfilled. Traffic has continued to get worse on what is the main highway through Pennsylvania's Lehigh Valley, but "a lack of money, a large number of eminent domain cases, other needs across the state and a changing view of transportation strategies make even partial completion of the widening project unlikely."
