Sen. Lisa Baker, R-20, has introduced legislation to designate Exit 30 off of Interstate 84 in Pike County in honor of Cpl. Bryon K. Dickson, II.

Dickson, was a member of the Pennsylvania State Police assigned to the Blooming Grove barracks located along Route 402 about one mile from that interstate interchange. He was shot and killed in the line of duty on Sept. 12, allegedly by Eric Frein.

By naming the exit for Cpl. Dickson, motorists will always remember the Marine and trooper who bravely served his nation, state and community, Baker said.

She noted that the stretch of I-84 from the New York State line west to the junction with Interstates 81 and 380 was designated the “Fallen Trooper Memorial Highway” in 2011 after a bill she sponsored was adopted and signed into law. A monument placed at the Matamoras Welcome Center just off Exit 53 includes an inscription and the names of all Pennsylvania State Troopers killed in the line of duty.
