Towpath Trail Closed at Conrail Embankment South of Morrisville

July 16, 2018

Construction has begun on opening up one of our remaining three major trail obstructions along the canal. Contractors have begun work at the site known as the Conrail embankment, located 1 mile south of Bridge Street in Morrisville. The towpath on both north and south sides of the embankment will be closed due to this construction for the foreseeable future, as contractors prepare to tunnel through the embankment. 

Once completed, towpath users will once again be able to safely traverse through this segment of the canal towpath for the first time in decades.
