Accomplishments

A great deal has been accomplished by the Lawrence Hopewell Trail Corporation.

Since joining forces in 2001 and 2002, Bristol-Myers Squibb, Educational Testing Service, Hopewell Township, Lawrence Township, Mercer County, the New Jersey Department of Transportation and a wide array of local organizations have worked with and through the non-profit Lawrence Hopewell Trail to complete the following segments:

  • Lawrence Village Park – Paved trail leads from Yeger Drive through the park, down Craven Lane and through the Village of Lawrenceville to the corner of Gordon Lane and Main Street (Route 206).
  • Keefe Road Segment – Paved 600 feet segment that links Village Park with the Mercer County Park Northwest and Rosedale Park, future sites for Trail segments.
  • Lawrence Main Street Segment—Trail takes existing streets and roads to the Lawrenceville School. 
  • Lawrenceville School – The Trail winds through the campus of this private school to an exit onto Lewisville Road in Lawrence Township.
  • Educational Testing Service– Residents and visitors can enjoy about 1.2 miles of paved Trail through the park-like campus off of Rosedale Road.

In Hopewell Township, a segment of the Trail currently runs along Pennington-Rocky Hill Road on the Bristol-Myers Squibb Hopewell Campus between Old Mill and Titus Mill Roads, providing safe passage to hikers, joggers and cyclists on this very busy stretch of roadway. The Trail passes a popular seasonal produce stand and allows users to take in views of surrounding, state-preserved farm lands.

We’re Trail Happy

Working together, we’re helping to build healthy and happy families in the Hopewell Valley and beyond.

Lawrence Hopewell Trail’s multi-recreational bicycle and pedestrian path through Lawrence and Hopewell Townships is another way to enjoy the great outdoors while getting into shape.  That’s why the hundreds of people who use the trail each year are “Trail Happy!”

Join us as a volunteer and you can be “Trail Happy” too.
