The Morris Canal Greenway - Warren County, New Jersey

The Morris Canal Greenway - Warren County, New Jersey The goals of the Committee are preserving and protecting the remains of the Morris Canal and increasing the awareness of its great historical significance.

In 1981, the Warren County Board of County Commissioners made the Morris Canal a part of the County's open space plan and established the Morris Canal Committee as a special committee of the County Planning Board. Since that time the Canal Committee has worked with the County Board of Recreation Commissioners, Land Preservation Department, and the Planning Board staff towards those goals. Warren C

ounty has become a leader in the protection of the remnants of the Morris Canal by promoting a greenway corridor and preserving the historic remains of the Canal as an important part of the County's transportation history. The vision is to have this greenway extend across Warren County with the canal as a link to recreational, cultural, and historic ares including state park trails, and municipal and county public open space. This greenway will extend between the proposed New Jersey Transportation Heritage Museum in Phillipsburg and the historic Waterloo Village - a restored canal town. In some places the towpath will become a recreational trail open to the public for non-motorized activities. In other places, pocket parks will be established for the public's enjoyment. When completed, this greenway will be a living reminder of the County's transportation heritage while promoting the economic benefits of cultural and heritage tourism.
