North Central Greenways
In conjunction with the North Central Greenways Plan, North Central PA Regional Planning and Development has launched a website that is designed as a tool to assist with the implementation of greenways and trails in the North Central Pa region. The main goal of the website is to serve as a clearinghouse for information. Trail organizations, municipalities or interested citizens can visit the site to receive the latest information on current projects, potential funding sources for new projects and a toolkit of information about trails development.
