TRAIL PROJECT COMPLETE:
DELAWARE AVE BIKE-HIKE TRAIL
The Hudson River Valley Greenway is pleased to share the successful completion of the Delaware Ave Bike-Hike Trail Improvements Project in the City of Cohoes.
The 1.3-mile trail - which is owned by the City - is a popular section of the Empire State Trail.
In late 2025, it was determined that tree root growth caused damage to the trail and created a safety concerns for bicyclists and pedestrians. Additionally, there were sections of pavement that reached the end of their useful life and needed resurfacing.
HRVG and the City partnered to address concerns and improve safety, which included tree removal, engineering services, and construction.
HRVG covered the $600,000 total project cost. The City of Cohoes retains jurisdiction and maintenance responsibility for the trail.
