Our Mission
S.A.V.E. promotes roadway infrastructure consistent with safety, agricultural preservation, historic villages, and environmental protection.
History
A proposal in 1997 to expand PA Route 41 by constructing bypasses, additional lanes, and grade-separated intersections led to concern about the direct and secondary impacts of such a project. Community members were alarmed that potential consequences such as sprawling development, loss of open space and farm land, and degradation to the environment were not being properly addressed. S.A.V.E. was founded the same year to develop and promote an alternative to this conventional approach to highway improvement.
