The Bushkill Creek Greenway Master Plan outlines a community-driven vision to unify trails and public spaces into an accessible, sustainable greenway centered on the Bushkill Creek. The plan emphasizes improving accessibility, upgrading aging infrastructure, and enhancing ecological and hydrological systems to address climate change while fostering inclusive public spaces. Building on the success of the Palmer Township Bikeway (an early rail-to-trail project) the plan proposes expanded connections between trails and parks, along with new signage and amenities to improve user experience. Supported by grant funding and phased over the coming decade, the plan serves as a long-term guide for environmental stewardship and community well-being along the Bushkill. It promotes regional collaboration to create a connected, livable landscape that benefits both people and nature.
