Ohio & Erie Canal Works Continue

The National Park Service (NPS) has announced that it will reopen the Ohio & Erie Canal Towpath Trail from Frazee House to Station Road Trailhead now through Sunday, November 30.

NPS will close the trail from Frazee House to Station Road Trailhead from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday, December 1 to Friday, December 5, 2014. The trail will be open evenings. NPS maintenance staff will continue to dredge and work on the Ohio & Erie Canal.

The maintenance dredging is needed to remove accumulated debris from the canal to allow a free flow of water in the canal.

CVNP encompasses 33,000 acres along the Cuyahoga River between Cleveland and Akron, Ohio. Managed by the National Park Service, CVNP combines cultural, historical, recreational, and natural activities in one setting.
