AGP Executive Report

Last update: 4 hours ago

Cruise Boost for Philly: Norwegian Cruise Line and PhilaPort officially opened Philadelphia’s new Delaware River cruise terminal, ending the “hotel-and-shuttle” era for sailings and positioning the port for future deployments; leaders touted major local economic impact and jobs, plus community donations tied to the opening. Measles Alert for Travelers & Families: Pennsylvania reported its first measles deaths in decades, prompting fresh vaccination guidance—especially for infants and anyone traveling to or living in counties with cases—while officials and local leaders dispute details around “measles-associated” labels. Road-Trip Disruptions: PennDOT announced emergency bridge repairs and other construction-related closures and lane restrictions across the region, including a Green Lane Borough/Marlborough Township detour running through Sept. 3 and Upper Merion/West Conshohocken bridge work with limited daily closures. Outdoor & Local Tourism Picks: Visit Potter-Tioga renewed its presenting sponsorship for Mountie All-Access, highlighting hiking, state parks, and the Pine Creek Rail Trail; and Dorney Park revealed its 2026 Halloween Haunt lineup with a new Blair Witch maze and separate haunted-attractions ticketing. Community Events: A 9/11 stair climb at Handley will honor nearly 3,000 victims, and Pennsylvania’s Trooper Gary Knott is being remembered with a public procession in Meadville.
