The Brandywine Conservancy and the Chester County Planning Commission are continuing their efforts to study the possibility of a water trail with an online survey seeking thoughts and ideas from those interested in the possibility of the trail.
Water trails are recreational and educational corridors between specific locations that can be used for both single day and multiple day trips on and within waterways. They are comprised of access points, boat launches, day use sites, and — in some cases — overnight camping areas. They provide safe access to and information about waterways while also providing connections to our diverse history, ecology, geology, heritage and wildlife.

As reported in February, there have been several public meetings on the subject. If the water trail becomes a reality, there would be greater access to the creek — including more put ins and take outs — for kayakers, canoeists and tubers. There would also be signage along the bank.
As senior land use planner Rod Daniels said at the time, “The trail would provide an opportunity for more involvement. It would create a community of creek users.”
