BREAKING! We are pleased to share that funding via a FTA Capital Investment Grant has been secured from DC and Harrisburg to support the design of a potential rail-with-trail project, building on the strong success and growing use of the trail.

This next phase will help move the project to shovel-ready status, positioning the corridor for future construction opportunities and long-term transportation and recreation benefits for the community.
