Community raises concerns on possible Geisinger Cancer Treatment Center
Borough officials say the current plan includes one building bringing in around 300 cars per day.
Residents say they're worried about how the new project could bring a lot of traffic to Route 15.
'Because of where it is located and because of how fast the speed is on that hill, it's going to be nothing but a death trap,' East Buffalo Township resident Tina Prowant said.
Wilkes-Barre now better prepared for floods
'I think the main concern is traffic safety because it's on Route 15. Giant had proposed building a supermarket on this site back in the 2000s. This is very different, it's not going to be anywhere near the traffic volume that the supermarket would create,' East Buffalo Township Chair of Board Supervisors James Knight explained.
The borough believes land development has already been approved, and the project is considered an appropriate use for the site.
The final step now is for Geisinger to apply for zoning and building permits. Once those are in place, construction can begin.
The land is currently being cleared and graded.
