2018-09-05 Lower Merion Manayunk Trail Walk
MCPC staff joined host Chris Leswing, Director of Lower Merion Township’s Building and Planning Department, and nearly 100 trail enthusiasts on the 3 Bridges Trail Walk. The event celebrated the tremendous work done over the past 10 years by Lower Merion Township, the City of Philadelphia and numerous advocates and organizations to transform former railroad bridges into bike and pedestrian crossings over the Schuylkill River. With the Manayunk and Pencoyd bridges now open, only one connection remains to be completed. Participants got a sneak preview of the proposed connection between the Schuylkill River Trail and the Cynwyd Heritage Trail via the Towpath Bridge.
