Saucon Creek Greenway Master Plan
Project Information
Saucon Creek Greenway in Hellertown
In 2022, the team from Isett was contracted for a Saucon Creek Greenway Study and Master Site Plan to identify natural and man-made resources within a network of greenways and develop a plan to interconnect them with recreational opportunities and open space preservation.
The corridor includes areas of the Saucon Rail Trail, Water Street Park, Hellertown Marsh, and Tumminello Park. The desire for both active and passive recreation, retaining historical integrity, and highlighting natural habitats are areas of focus, aligning with goals of the Lehigh Valley Greenways initiative.
The project involves public engagement with the Borough officials, various stakeholders, and community members; site inventory and analysis; facility analysis; cost estimating; and design concepts. This study will produce recommendations for a multi-phase capitol development program.
