Tourism still consistent in winter
On Tuesday afternoon, Jack Cohen, president of the Butler County Tourism and Convention Bureau, was stuck in lane-spanning traffic as he was driving through Cranberry Township.
For him, the sight of heavy traffic isn't completely aggravating, but a good sign for tourism because it demonstrates the desire of people to be out in Butler County.
“The traffic here is backed up lane to lane,” Cohen said, “but it's nice to know people are conducting business no matter what time of year.”
According to Cohen, the county still gets a consistent level of visitation throughout the winter months, despite Butler not being the warm, sunny winter reprieve most people would seek.
