Rail-Trail Council Public Meeting

The Rail-Trail Council of Northeastern Pennsylvania will be holding the first public meeting regarding the Endless Mountains Trail Feasibility Study on Tuesday evening, January 25, 7 p.m., at the Montrose Area High School Cafeteria.

The RT Council took over ownership of the trail in 2006 and has received funding from Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and Natural Resources (PADCNR) to undertake a feasibility study of the trail. The study is necessary for developing future plans for trail development as drainage and trail surface improvements, signage, trail access, and trail operation & maintenance.

The first public meeting will share the work done to date and measure public support. The study hopes to identify existing and potential trail users. Local issues will be identified and addressed.

The Council would appreciate comments regarding the future of this historic rail-trail and hopes you can attend. Any questions or concerns, please call the RTC office at 570-679-9300 or e-mail trails@nep.net.
