Phase II of the Nor-Bath Trail Rehabilitation Project resumed on March 23, 2021. Work had to cease during the winter months due to bad weather conditions. Resurfacing, intersection enhancements and safety improvements will be added between Weaversville and Clear Springs Road. The work should be completed in April.
“We’ve seen the importance our trail systems have in our communities during the pandemic and are sure the interest will continue. We are grateful to have elected officials that see the importance of these investments to our communities,” said Bryan S. Cope, Superintendent of Parks & Recreation.
The Nor-Bath Trail is the only County-owned trail within the network of over 300-miles of land and water trails throughout the County. The Nor-Bath Trail is part of THE LINK, an inter-connected trail system throughout the Lehigh Valley and directly connects to the D&L Trail and the September 11th National Memorial Trail.
Northampton County provided $300,000 to match a PA Department of Conservation & Natural Resources Community Conservation and Partnership Program grant, successfully awarded in 2018.
The engineering was completed by Maser Consulting and construction for Phase II was awarded to Grace Industries.
