WEST ONEONTA – As crews finish wrapping the 75-foot tall pine tree on "Daddy Al" Dick's property here, state police have issued an alert of traffic delays and lane closures over the next tomorrow through Thursday on Route 23 here as the tree is cut down and prepared for the journey to Rockefeller Center, where it will become the most famous Christmas tree in the world.
According to Trooper Aga Dembinska, the area in the 3800 block of Route 23, north of Route 8 "may be experiencing higher than normal volume this week."
