Working in conjunction with Friends of the Chemung River Watershed, the Upper Susquehanna Coalition will install 3-foot-wide by 1-foot-high aluminum signs on 45 bridges along eight rivers in the Upper Susquehanna River Watershed. The black-and-white signs will display the name of the municipality, route number over the bridge, and distance to the Chesapeake Bay.

Nine of the signs will be installed on bridges spanning the 45-mile-long Chemung River. The signs will also be placed on bridges over the Conhocton, Canisteo and Susquehanna rivers in the Twin Tiers. The $12,000 project was spearheaded by the Upper Susquehanna Coalition and paid for with a Chesapeake Bay Gateways Network Grant.
