For more complete details of this project, please check out the website. For a brief overview now, please read the paragraph below.
The "Improve Public Safety for Public Trail Users" project is to keep the users of the Snow Shoe Rail Trail safe while crossing the Historic 770' long Viaduct Bridge. The multi-use-rail-trail users cross the bridge regularly to enjoy the beautiful breathtaking view of the countryside in north central PA. This project will provide a hand railing on the east side with chain link fencing on both sides where none currently exists. The decking on the 100' + tall bridge consists of railroad ties with some replacement needed. The ATVs cross on a narrow band of expanded metal with a moderately safe handrail on the west side. This project will also preserve a critical trail link between Clearfield and Centre Counties. The loss of this link would severely impact the usability of the trail and result in recreational and economic losses.
Thank you for your support.
