Trenton, ME – Drivers traveling along Bar Harbor Road in Trenton early Tuesday morning should be prepared for possible delays due to a roadside memorial gathering.
According to the Hancock County Sheriff’s Office, the event is scheduled for approximately 5:00 a.m. on Tuesday, Sept. 23, near Hunter’s Way on Bar Harbor Road. The gathering is being held in honor of the late Deputy Luke Gross.

“We appreciate your patience and understanding as we support the family, friends, and colleagues of Deputy Gross during this time,” the Sheriff’s Office stated.
Motorists are urged to drive carefully and show respect when passing through the area. Authorities also ask residents to share the advisory so travelers are aware of potential delays.
