Another gap closed and another step taken along the 19-mile Indian Creek Valley Trail was made with the completion of the Steyer Bridge project in Mill Run.
The Mountain Watershed Association is looking to complete a bridge project that will help complete their hiking and biking trail.
In late 2019, the MWA started working on a project to turn the 19 miles of the abandoned Indian Creek Valley Railroad into a scenic hiking and biking trail known as the Indian Creek Valley (ICV) Trail and the Youghiogheny River Water Trail.
The MWA is a grassroots, community-based non-profit organization that works to protect, preserve and restore both the Indian Creek and greater Youghiogheny River watersheds.
Once complete, the trail will begin in Jones Mills and will end at the Youghiogheny River in Mill Run with the third and final phase to connect with the Great Allegheny Passage.
