I've read that bridge construction is occurring on the GAP at Layton. That is near Connellsville and there is 2-3 year turnaround expected. Is this true does anyone know?

Just wear a football helmet when going through Point State Park during the NFL draft and barge through. No, just be careful.

The GAP website indicates that the trail will be closed on April 23 due to paving in the Layton Bridge area with a shuttle around the closure provided at that time. There has been and is ongoing construction in that area as well associated with the replacement of the bridge that offers periodic obstruction by construction traffic.

That said, I haven’t ridden through that area myself since last fall.
