Pottstown’s Trail Connector Opens | Philadelphia News

A brand-new bike trail connector just opened near Pottstown, completing a 70-mile continuous path from Philly to Reading — and it’s a game-changer for cycling tourism. After a decade of hurdles, including land deals, utility moves, and protecting endangered turtles, this under-a-mile stretch finally bridges the Schuylkill River Trail, eliminating road detours. Cyclists can now ride uninterrupted through towns like Pottstown, whose restaurants and breweries are poised to cash in on the influx. This isn’t just a trail — it’s a vital link in an 800-mile regional network designed to unite communities and boost local economies one pedal at a time.
