TRAFFIC ADVISORY
|
|
An accident that occurred on Thursday, May 9 in Harrisburg at the I-81 and 22/322 ramps may affect your commute to Carlisle this weekend. This interchange is located near mile marker 67. At this time, I-81 IS OPEN, however; some detours are in place due to damage to multiple flyover ramps.
Travelers approaching Carlisle from the north on I-81 should proceed as planned, however; be prepared for an occasional tap of the bakes around the interchange.
If you are traveling to Carlisle from points east or west of I-81 and use 22/322 as your preferred route, expect some new traffic patterns as you approach I-81.
Please refer to our Carlisle PA Fairgrounds Alternate Direction Map. You may also use this link to consider alternate options if your preference is to avoid I-81 all together.

Carlisle Performance & Style
May 11-12, 2013
Carlisle PA Fairgrounds
Carlisle Performance & Style saw a 60% bump in pre-registration and everyone who came to Carlisle thoroughly enjoyed themselves this year. The weekend opened Friday with a late afternoon cruise-in and a low car limbo, plus the chance to beat the weekend rush by registering for the showfield or at least picking up materials in advance of the Saturday rush of guests.
With many ready to cruise onsite Saturday, the hobby was on full display as thousands of cars adorned the grounds. Displays included one dedicated specifically to domestic cars, another for Asian machines, European styles where showcased and so were the ladies with a display that featured cars owned, maintained and shown exclusively by females.
P&S also featured a great club atmosphere, hosted a burnout competition and beauty contest. Sunday wrapped with an awards presentation and while P&S has concluded for 2013, the event returns to Carlisle, May 10-11, 2014.
