The Bridgeton Township Supervisor’s would like to invite all residents to the formal opening of the new Bridgeton Nature Preserve will take place Wednesday, May 27th, 12PM – 1PM at the Nature Preserve.

Representatives from Bucks County, DCNR, and the Tinicum Conservancy, all of whom were instrumental in securing and protecting this 105 acre former quarry, will be in attendance, as well as members of the Appalachian Mountain Club PA Highlands Trail Stewards who have worked for the last year with volunteers including Bridgeton residents to finish a 2 mile trail through the lowlands and ponds and traversing the forested ridge.

Come help us celebrate this great addition to our township!

Veteran’s Memorial Garden

Bridegton Township thanks Candy Traven and Peace Tree Farm for their generous donation of a stunning array of flowers for our Veteran’s Memorial at the foot of the Milford – Upper Black Eddy bridge.

Not only that, but Candy jumped right in and got her hands dirty, helping to plant them all, transforming our simple garden into a spectacular homage to the men and women who have served our country in times of war.

Thank-you Candy and Peace Tree Farms!

Canal Rewatering has Begun!!!


The long-awaited rewatering of the canal has begun, according to Kelsey Hansen, Assistant Park Manager.

“The two major projects that needed to be completed to allow a fully watered canal are complete. The locations were Lumberville Aqueduct and the High Falls Sub Canal Culvert. Also, PennDOT has been working on a wall project in Williams Township and they just got done with pulling out of the canal prism (they needed to be in there to do work). We have recently opened the feed gates in Easton to allow water to flow south. It will be a slow process, as we have to wait for the clay liner to soak up the water in each section before sending the water further south.

Thank you,
Kelsey
