Eastbound Connector Phase 2: Shippen to Riverside
Project Description
East Bound Connector Route: Phase 2 is part of the City Bicycle Network and the regional Lancaster Heritage Pathway trail network. This segment will run between existing bicycle infrastructure on Shippen Street and planned infrastructure at Riverside Avenue. It will also consider improvements to north-south connections to the McCaskey campus. The route will be designed to create a safe pathway and crossings for bicyclists, pedestrians, and other vulnerable road users. There are several potential routes the path could take, including segments of East Fulton Street, E. Chestnut Street, East Marion Street, E. Orange Street, and Alleys 122 & 123.
