Valley Green Run Restoration and Pedestrian Bridge

Overview

The Valley Green Run Restoration and Pedestrian Bridge project finished construction December 2024 and is now available for public use.

This restoration project:

• Rebuilt the Valley Green Run streambank and adjacent footbridge
• Provided erosion control, creating a stable stream channel to reduce the amount of sediment being discharged into Wissahickon Creek
• Restored a riparian buffer through native landscaping
• Built a new 200-foot pedestrian bridge to allow pedestrians to safely enter this popular area of the Wissahickon Valley Park, along with a new observation platform
