National Park Service to Assist with Ohio River Trail Study
Pittsburgh Tribune-Review
19 January 2011
A group looking to develop a 41-mile-long land and water trail system
along the Ohio River and its tributaries will receive technical
assistance for the project from the National Park Service.
The National Park Service staff will help the Ohio River Trail Council
complete a feasibility study and expand public involvement in the
proposed trail project, which will run from the beginning of the
Montour Trail in Moon and end at the border between Pennsylvania and
Ohio near Route 68 in the Beaver County community of Ohioville.
Peggy Pings, an outdoor recreation planner for the National Park
Service, characterized the proposed Ohio River Trail as "a critical and
missing link to nationally significant trail linkages."
