Interested in a safe and convenient access to the Delaware Canal Towpath?

8 years ago Featured

I had a very close call with several motorcycles while trying to access the canal via River Rd. with my dog. Will never do it again, so hoping for a safe access to the canal.

We love walking and running on the canal but find we aren’t able to use it frequently due to lack of easy access from our neighborhood. We have two kids and would love to be able to take them on the canal but feel it is far too dangerous to access it via River Rd. It is quite surprising there is a path to access it from river rd but yet no safe means of getting to that path from anywhere. We are in full support of having better access!

It is very dangerous to gain access to the towpath from the River Rd bridge, and I especially have concern for my child gaining access. Such a wonderful resource that I would utilize more frequently with better access!

I have been here for 20 years When they were dredging the canal they put in a temp bridge My family walked the canal every day. Build a nice foot bridge for the kids

BVF Resident. The public is going to find a way to access the canal. It's best that it be provided safely in lieu of on a blind curve.

I would love a safer access bridge to the canal path! I would use it much more!

Very important. Thank you.

We have purchased a home in Bridlewood Farms and have the exact same issue. Please keep me informed of the progress on this topic.

We need a better access

BVF resident. Safe access to the towpath from BVF is a must. I risk being hit by a car whenever I try to run from the development to the path via River Rd.

To whom it may come concern, Thank you for considering our petition Regards, Tyler

Please!!!!

Please approve!

I have almost been hit by cars on several occassions. I forbid my children to walk the road so they only get to use it when I can drive them to a place with safe access. What a shame to live on the canal but have no access to it. We have a road that dead ends to it which is the perfect place for a bridge. Something the other neighborhoods have. Why not us?

Thank you for considering a safe route to the canal for our families.
