The borough and the state are partners in the project. Members of the public are welcome to attend. The event runs from 3 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. at the site off Alsop Road. At 435,000 square feet, the $240 million project is the largest building construction project for the state in recent history, according to the borough.
The medium-security facility will have 1,536 beds for male prisoners, and will reduce the state's need to ship inmates to out-of-state facilities.
For more information, contact borough spokeswoman Patty Sullivan at 745-9577 or psullivan@matsugov.us.
