The Township’s 2015 Comprehensive Plan explores improving and adding entrances to the State Park.
We want to help make these new entrances a reality.
New park entrances discussed in the Comprehensive Plan include new trail access from the Edgmont Township Park and a new entrance for Runnymeade Farms residents utilizing existing paths and unused roads on the Pennsylvania Resources Council and Clonmel Farms grounds.
Edgmont Township is currently developing a new Recreation, Open Space, and Trails Plan. Sign up for updates to learn when the draft plan will be available for public review.
“Ridley Creek State Park is the most important amenity to which the Township should look to enhance multimodal connections. … The Township should examine existing Park entrances that could be linked to neighboring housing developments and communities via trails. The purpose of these connecting trails is to encourage ease of access and greater utilization of the State Park, while creating the opportunity for residents to walk, bike or ride a horse from their property to the Park’s trails, fields and attractions. This further helps Edgmont become an ‘outdoor community.'”
