Grant awarded for crucial Chalfont section of Neshaminy Greenway Trail

Published Friday, February 14, 2025

Chalfont Borough has received a $225,000 state grant to help complete a crucial segment of the Northern Neshaminy Greenway Trail, a 33-mile recreational route that spans Bucks County. The money will help complete a section of the trail in the Lindenfield Townhomes development, located off Route 152/Main Street. The completion of the trail was not without controversy, with residents in the area balking at the trail based on concerns over privacy, flooding, environmental implications and maintenance costs. With construction slated to begin soon, the trail will finally connect the section of Chalfont to the wider regional network. The Neshaminy Creek Greenway Trail, when completed, will stretch from Peace Valley Park near Chalfont to Neshaminy State Park and the East Coast Greenway in Bensalem.
