HEIDELBERG TWP – A new trailhead on the Hanover Trolley Trail will be open Monday, Nov. 9, in Heidelberg Township, according to Sen. Kristin Phillips-Hill (R-York), who secured state funding for the project.
“This is a wonderful addition to the extensive trail system in York County, and I am proud of the collective effort that made it possible,” Phillips-Hill said. “From the leadership and vision of the York County Rail Trail Authority to the generosity of community donors, so many people came together to bring this project to fruition.”
The Oil Creek Trailhead project was funded through a combination of community donations and various state grants, totaling more than $1 million, which were secured by Sen. Phillips-Hill and Rep. Kate Klunk (R-Hanover). Located on 6769 York Road in Heidelberg Township, the project included restoration of Oil Creek, the extension of the Hanover Trolley Trail to Jacobs Mill Road, and the installation of a parking lot and trail amenities.
