We're Friends of the Riverfront, the organization that builds and stewards the 35+ miles - and counting - of the Three Rivers Heritage Trail and Water Trail.
The trail between W. North Ave and past Kroll Dr. to under the West End Bridge in Chateau will be closed temporarily as the Esplanade Project breaks ground starting December 10 until summer of 2026. On-road detour and detour signage to be followed.
The segment of Three Rivers Heritage Trail in Chateau between Branchport Street and N Franklin Street will be temporarily closed due to repairs needed. It will be closed to all pedestrian and bike traffic. The suggested detour uses Metropolitan St.
