A group of local community leaders and area residents interested in expanding bicycle and pedestrian opportunities developed the Assawoman Canal Trail Concept Plan. This work led to the 2015 opening of a 1.1-mile trail segment between Route 26 and Elliott Avenue. The Trail’s Phase 2 will explore the feasibility of a Route 26 trail underpass, creating a safe connection to sidewalks on the south side of Route 26.
