Doylestown Township is expanding its popular bike and hike trail network with a new mile-long section linking Burpee Road and Business Route 202 to existing trails near Doylestown Hospital, writes Ed Doyle for TAPinto Doylestown.
The latest addition, expected to be completed by late fall, connects residential areas to key locations like Delaware Valley College, Doyle Elementary, and Lenape Middle School.
To enhance safety, new stop signs with flashing lights have been installed at the intersection of North Shady Retreat Road and Limekiln Road, where the trail crosses.
This initiative, vetted by PennDOT and funded by state grants, aims to protect pedestrians and cyclists from traffic hazards.
Township Manager Stephanie Mason highlighted the trail’s growing popularity, noting its appeal to residents and newcomers seeking walkable communities.
