PA Canal Path Update

River Road (Route 32) Update -- At this time, most all of River Road has
re-opened after the most recent flooding. Businesses from Bristol to New
Hope and up to Riegelsville, with few exceptions, are open and eagerly
awaiting spring and summer visitors. Please do not hesitate to recommend
scenic River Road (Route 32) to guests visiting our area. It is still a
spectacular drive and a highlight to any visit to Bucks County.

There are two sections of River Road that remain closed and will require
that traffic detour around it. The first is located in Washington Crossing,
from the intersection of Route 532 up through the intersection with
Taylorsville Road (map 1). The Washington Crossing Park, the David Library
of the American Revolution, and Café Marcella’s are open for business. This
section of River Road will remain closed until sometime in 2006.

The other section includes River Road (Rt. 32) north of Bridgeton
Hill/Marienstein Road and south of the Rts. 32 and 611 intersection (map 2).
The many shops, inns, and restaurants located in this stretch remain open
for business. Trucks are required to detour from River Road on Bridgeton
Hill/Marienstein Road to Route 611, but all other traffic may proceed past
the Road Closed signs and continue along River Road to Narrows Hill/Center
Hill Road. The Indian Rock Inn is located just past this intersection and
is a great stopping point for travelers. Just past the Indian Rock Inn, the
road is closed and will remain closed through most of the summer. Narrows
Hill/Center Hill also connects with Route 611 and can be used in lieu of
Marienstein/Bridgeton Hill Road.

Towpath Update -- The Towpath is closed from Easton to Upper Black Eddy. It
is open from Upper Black Eddy to the Golden Pheasant (approx. 6 miles). It
is closed from the Golden Pheasant to the David Library of the American
Revolution in Washington Crossing. It is open from Washington Crossing to
Bristol (approx. 18 miles).
