The Warwick to Ephrata Rail Trail (WERT) connects five northeastern Lancaster County communities. This 7.2 mile regional trail travels through many landscapes, from farmland, woodlands, and rural villages to historic urban neighborhoods and downtowns. With multiple trailheads/access points, it is accessible to thousands of residents. Besides recreational use, the trail is a popular and safe alternative transportation route between Ephrata, Akron, and Lititz Boroughs for walking/biking to school, work, and downtown destinations. Many charity bike rides, marathons, and other events occur on the trail. Among the amenities are restrooms, solar powered pedestrian crossing lights, bike share, access point electric charging stations, and handicap accessibility. The five municipalities formed the WERT Committee, and coordinated with the community and other partners, to oversee trail planning, construction, and ongoing maintenance. The WERT is a prime example of the success that can result from intergovernmental cooperation, partnerships, and community engagement. This success is demonstrated not only in trail usage, but also the economic activity it has stimulated.
