The Gregg Township Supervisors, in collaboration with the Centre County Planning and Community Development Office, have decided to pursue the development of a Rails-to-Trails Feasibility Study throughout a majority of the Penns Valley Region and a section of the Centre Region along the former historic Lewisburg-Tyrone, Centre and Spruce Creek railroad alignments.
This new trail system is envisioned as one of the hallmark projects developing from the Centre County Recreation and Greenways Plan and would serve as a natural link between the easternmost sections of the Centre Region, in particular Harris and College Townships and their respective communities of Boalsburg and Lemont, and the Penns Valley connecting core communities such as Centre Hall, Spring Mills, and Coburn while also providing linkages to key community educational, recreational, historic and cultural resources.
