You can get there, from here, if you are patient

Muhlenberg is situated at the outskirts of Reading, north of the city. The only "highway" route to the Northeast from this area is state route 222, which is infamous for long traffic tie ups and delays between Muhlenberg and Kutztown. Just north of Muhlenberg is the officially deemed worst traffic jam area in the entire state of PA. Unfortunately, is you are headed to NY or New England, or just to Allentown to go to work, you must sit in long lines of stop and go traffic along a 2-lane road. The area is not served well by highways to the south, either, except toward Lancaster county along route 222, which finally bypasses the city of Reading beginning in Muhlenberg. If you're headed toward Philadelphia or Baltimore, be prepared for nightmarish commutes by automobile. This area is NOT served by commuter or passenger rail service and efforts to reinstate those have been painfully slow and probably doomed to die. Area long timers don't want any major highways here ... unfortunately that means no growth except in service related jobs and expensive bedroom community homes.
