JONES GREENWAY ISAAC BRANCH TRAIL PHASE III 0 50' 100' MAY 2009 SHEET 6 OF 6 Tab 3 INITIAL CONCEPT STUDY St. Jones Greenway, Isaac Branch Trail Phase III Introduction Kent County plans the St. Jones River Greenway as a 14-mile long riverside pathway linking central Dover to the Delaware Bay. The central feature of the Greenway is the Isaac Branch Trail, a ten-foot- wide paved pedestrian and bicycle path. The first two phases of the Isaac Branch Trail have been completed, connecting downtown Dover with the north side of Route 10. When complete, the Trail will connect residential communities, the City of Dover and recreation areas along the St. Jones River. It will serve important recreational and non-motorized transportation functions. This report is an initial concept study prepared by Whitman, Requardt & Associates, LLP (WR&A) as part of the Delaware Department of Transportation’s (DelDOT’s) Transportation Enhancements program. Unlike most concept studies under the Transportation Enhancements (TE) program, this study was prepared at a broad-brush planning level, defining opportunities and constraints for the development of Isaac Branch Trail Phase III. This phase will connect the existing Phase II trailhead with the Lebanon Landing
