Safety on SRT in Montgomery County Update

The Montgomery County Committee of the Bicycle Coalition has coordinated an online incident report map (created by Jon Bringhurst--thank you Jon) for users of the Schuylkill River Trail. (The map can used for any section of the SRT). As mentioned before, always call 911 if you have been assaulted, injured in a crash, or if you see any criminal activity on the trail.

A trail clean up is scheduled for Saturday, June 27th from 9am to 3pm. Meet other bicyclists at the Citizens Bank Parking Lot adjacent to the trail at the intersection of Lafayette and Barbados Streets in Norristown. The bank address is 2 West Lafayette St., #110, Norristown, PA. Please bring your own tools (no chain saws). If you plan to come, please email jcerruti@comcast.net or philware1@verizon.net If you have questions, call Steve Scheetz at 610-636-8039

Was on the trail today and I saw police patroling the trail in both Norristown and in Conshy. Good to know they're making their presence felt.

There were two tractors at the Haws Ave section of the SRT cutting back the brush further than normal.
