in 1980, dorney park road, a former two-lane state highway which cut through the park, was closed to traffic and converted to a midway. the state highway (lr 157, which became us 222) had been rerouted more than 60 years earlier south of the park as hamilton blvd. dorney park road became a local street and the access road to the park. prior to the road's closing, dorney park's narrow-gauge railroad crossed the road, which led to traffic stoppages every time the train was to cross dorney park road. this railroad crossing also helped park patrons cross the road.
