Cross County Trail East Feasibility Study

The Montgomery County Planning Commission (MCPC), in partnership with its technical and engineering consultant, NV5, has completed a feasibility study of the easternmost segment of Montgomery County’s Cross County Trail. This 5-mile-long section of trail, when built, will begin at Welsh Road in Upper Dublin Township and terminate at the county’s Pennypack Trail. The project involves several municipalities, including Upper Dublin, Upper Moreland, and Bryn Athyn. The entire Cross County Trail, once completed, is planned to stretch from Conshohocken in the west to the Pennypack Trail in the east, totaling 17.5 miles in all, and will connect the Schuylkill River, Wissahickon Creek, Cresheim, and Power Line Trails. This Plan was completed in July 2022.
