New pedestrian bridge near Forbidden Drive in Wissahickon Valley Park could be built in late 2022

The popular Forbidden Drive area of Wissahickon Valley Park is on track to get a new pedestrian bridge that would connect the Valley Green Inn area to the Orange and White trails. Stream channels along the creek have undergone significant storm erosion in recent decades, limiting access to visitors along Valley Green Run. The project is led by the nonprofit Friends of the Wissahickon, which hopes to break ground in late 2022.
