As you travel through the park, you will see areas posted as closed due to ongoing construction. Please obey all posted closure signs. These areas are closed for the safety of our visitors and the workers in the construction area.
"Area Closed" and "Road Closed" signs apply to all vehicle and pedestrian traffic, including walkers, joggers, and bicycles.
If you have found yourself driving into a closed area, please take the time to turn your vehicle around. Do not attempt to back out of a closed area onto an adjoining road.
- Joseph Plumb Martin Trail
Portions of the Joseph Plumb Martin Trail will be closed as this fall the Park will be rehabilitating a 6,500 lineal foot section of the trail that extends from the lower Visitor Center parking lot to Gulph Road (along Outer Line Drive). Work will include removing the worn wearing course of asphalt, re-surfacing the trail tread, leveling depressions, and improving drainage to prevent water pooling and ice concentrations. The trail will remain at its original 8-foot width to prevent further soil disturbance and to allow efficient maintenance for all seasons. The re-paving project will begin in mid-October and should be completed by December.
Please use caution in parking areas as construction work may require portions of parking lots to be closed for short durations.
- Artillery Park Lot will be closed 9/24/08
Part of Inner Line Drive, one of the tour roads in the park, will be closed periodically. Beginning 9/25/08 repaving will begin on Inner Line Drive.
