The Montour Trail Council has begun construction of a new 940-foot section of trail in South Park Township to connect the Library Viaduct to Pleasant Street.

Montour Trail - New Construction

Construction of the trail section requires the excavation of nearly 12,000 cubic yards of rock. Work on the trail section began on July 18 and is expected to take 4 months. The accompanying photos show a portion of the site on July 16, before excavation began and the same viewpoint on August 12 after over 9,000 cubic yards of rock had been excavated.

Site excavation is expected to be nearly complete by the end of August, but construction of the trail will also require construction of storm water handling and infiltration installations, surface drainage structures, slope stabilization, planting of trees, bushes, grass and small plants, fencing, signage and an asphalt trail surface.
The next two meetings of the South Hills Friends of the Montour Trail will be held on September 13 and October 11, 2016 at 6:30 p.m. at the South Park Township Community Room, 2675 Brownsville Road, South Park.

The South Hills Friends are responsible for maintenance of the Montour Trail between Library and Clairton. Individuals interested in the Montour Trail are encouraged to attend.

Additional information concerning the trail, including South Hills Friends contact information, may be obtained on the Montour Trail web site www.montourtrail.org. Questions may be directed to info@montourtrail.org.
