Historic Chester County Bridge Gets A Bike Friendly Treatment

Chester County officials have been working with the Chester County Cycling Coalition (CCCC) to improve bridges with steel grates for bicyclists. The most recent is the Hares Hill Rd bridge over French Creek in East Pikeland Township. The County included a concrete strip for bicyclists to safely traverse this one lane bridge. It's the second bridge in the county to get such a treatment.
