The Delaware & Lehigh National Heritage Corridor, on behalf of its partner landowners, would like to notify the public of the following trail closures due to current construction of the Carbon County Connectivity Project.

The Marvin Gardens Trailhead at the corner of Route 895 and North Kittatinny Road.  Bowmans Road and access to the Lehigh River will remain open.

The D&L Trail at Bowmans Road.  There will be NO access to the Lehighton section of trail during the construction period from Bowmans Road / Marvin Gardens Trailhead area.

From the Lehighton Trailhead, the trail will remain open to the start of the construction zone, just above the Marvin Gardens Trailhead / Bowmans Road area.  There will be NO access the Marvin Gardens or East Penn boat launch during the construction period.

The construction period is scheduled to end on October 31, 2016.

For the safety of everyone, we ask that all users please observe all trail closed signs and barriers that have been installed.

For people planning trips to the Trail during construction, we recommend use of the East Penn Boat Launch Trailhead, off Route 895 on Riverview Road in East Penn Township.  The trail is open from the this trailhead south to the Cementon Trailhead.

We thank you for your cooperation.
