From the Delaware River Joint Toll Bridge Commission:
Due to the Scudder Falls Bridge replacement project, Woodside Road will be closed from 10 a.m. on June 12 until 6 a.m. on June 15. The Canal towpath will be open, but there will be no access from the I-95 Park and Ride to the towpath via Woodside Road. Parking is available in Yardley Borough to the south or Washington Crossing Historic Park to the north.
From the Delaware Canal State Park Manager:
Due to the canal failure at the Tinicum Aqueduct, a portion of the towpath will be closed until emergency repairs and stabilization work can be completed. After further inspection by engineering staff it was determined that a trail closure would be necessary for public safety. The towpath will be closed until further notice from the parking lot south of the Golden Pheasant (across from Marshal Island) to the south side of the Tinicum Aqueduct. The trail closure can be bypassed by using River Road for a short distance (approximately ½ mile) or by crossing over the Frenchtown bridge or Lumberville pedestrian bridge and using the trail along the D&R Canal State Park in New Jersey.
**TRAIL CLOSURE** A portion of the towpath will be closed due to construction surrounding a bridge replacement project at Lower Limeport Bridge. The closed portion is in Solebury Township between Upper Limeport Bridge and Phillips Mill Bridge, approximately 0.25 miles north of Phillips Mill. Please heed the barricades and avoid this area, or find alternate routes. Do not trespass on private property to bypass this area. For bicyclists, this section can easily be bypassed by following River Road (Route 32) for a short distance by exiting and/or entering the towpath at Upper Limeport Bridge and Canal Park in Solebury Township. Please DO NOT enter the construction zone AT ANY TIME, regardless of whether it is active or not, for your safety and that of the workers and equipment. Park officials expect the tow path to re-open by the end of April 2017.
If you have any questions or need additional information about the trail closure please feel free to contact the park office.
