In order to maintain the safety of trail users the Regional Trail Corporation, the non-profit organization that owns the property of the Great Allegheny Passage in Allegheny, Westmoreland, and Fayette County, PA, has revised its Mobility Device Policy. The primary purpose of the revision is to set rules for eBike operation. It is an effort to stop the use of throttle only riding of eBikes while allowing pedal assist eBike riding that is important to many trail riders.
Hello WYTC trail members,
Spring is here and time to get out the walking shoes or the bicycle and enjoy the trail.
WYTC appreciates all the support you give our section of the Great Allegheny Passage.
That being said, it is membership renewal time. Your membership can be renewed online or stop in the West Newton Station. All 100% of your membership dues goes to the trail maintenance by our all volunteer OTHG (over the hill gang). Hope to see you on the trail!!
Thanks again!
Connie Petras

Checkout what is new with the Westmoreland Yough Trail Chapter. New Memorial Benches and Kiosks have been installed in the Memorial Pavilions.
The key aspect will be the project’s floor, a brick memorial funded by those who want to remember a loved one or special event. It will be a place for everyone to pause and reflect on that special person or time in their life. For as little as $100.00, each brick can include the names, statement, and graphic of your choosing. A gift that will honor something meaningful to you and keep on giving through your support of one of best trails in Western Pennsylvania.
The first order of Memorial Bricks is in and have been installed. More are on the way.
A special thanks to those who purchased benches and bricks. If you haven't bought your brick yet, there is still time.
New Pavilion across from the West Newton Visitor Center with benches and bricks.
Attend monthly meetings, held every third Monday of the month, 7 pm, West Newton Station.
