Public Meeting on Opening Sections of the Delaware Canal
LOCATION: Bristol Borough Hall, Community Room, 250 Pond St., Bristol, PA
FEE: Free
register online The Delaware Canal, running from Easton to Bristol, once served as a major commercial transportation route for coal and other products. Today, there are recognized community benefits to opening or “daylighting” portions of the canal that have been filled in over the last several decades. On June 25, 2008, a public meeting was held in the Bristol Borough Hall to ask for public input on opening sections of the canal from Washington Street through the Snyder-Girotti Elementary School site. Many of those who attended expressed strong support for the project and suggested that an opened canal and tow path should reflect the historic character of years past. A second public meeting will be held on Wednesday, September 10, 2008 in the Borough Hall at 7:00 p.m. Representatives from Heritage Conservancy will present graphics of how an opened canal would look and what types of public improvements would be placed along a tow path. Probable economic benefits to the Borough will be discussed. This project is made possible thanks to the financial support from the Historic Delaware Canal Improvement Corporation and the Friends of the Delaware Canal. Registration is requested no later than Thursday, September 4th. For additional information or to register for the meeting, contact Michael Frank at (215) 345-7020 ext 118 or mfrank@heritageconservancy.org.
