New bike trail in New Castle County funded with federal infrastructure dollars

The initiative is part of a regional network known as Circuit Trails, which aims to connect more than 800 miles of trails across Pennsylvania and New Jersey by 2040.

New Castle County hasn’t assessed property since 1983. Some are concerned older residents will feel the brunt of tax increases.

The states will use the funding to remove toxic chemicals, remove lead pipes and upgrade sewer and stormwater infrastructure.
