Brandywine Creek Greenway Strategic Action Plan Update

Over the past year, the Brandywine Conservancy, Delaware Greenways and our fellow partners, have been working on an update to the Brandywine Creek Greenway’s Strategic Action Plan. This document will help guide the Greenway and related projects over the next 20+ years.

The updated draft is now available for public viewing and a call for public comment is open until October 7, 2024.

Please forward all comments to greenway@brandywine.org.

The final document will be published on the Brandywine Conservancy’s website at the end of October. There you can also learn more about the Brandywine Creek Greenway.

“The Strategic Action Plans for Pennsylvania and Delaware serve as the guiding document for Brandywine Creek Greenway partners. Both plans identify goals to increase municipal support, recreational access and environmental resilience within the Brandywine Creek Greenway and represent the needs and visions of our Greenway communities as a whole. Although both plans are well used by our partners and relevant today, there is a need to update the plans to address more contemporary issues. 

Through a series of public workshops and representation at local community events, the Brandywine Creek Greenway team will collect public input on the needs of the local communities to ensure that the planning and prioritization of new facilities and projects are relevant to the communities they serve. This update will specifically focus on developing recommendations to better address diversity, inclusion, accessibility, and equity for all who use and benefit from the Brandywine Creek. Additionally, this update will identify recommendations for enhancing community/environmental resiliency in the face of climate change.”
