Correction on Atlee Station Road widening project

The Fall 2019 issue of The Hanover Review contained an error. In the story regarding construction funding for Atlee Station Road, it was stated that Phase II of the widening of Atlee Station Road would widen Atlee Station Road to four lanes between Atlee Manor and Charter Gate Drive. It actually would widen Atlee Station Road to four lanes between Atlee Manor and Kings Charter Drive. The Public Information Officer apologizes for the error.
