Beginning the evening of July 9, a two-mile segment of the Great Allegheny Passage between the Whitaker Flyover (approximately mile marker 136) and the Port Perry Flyover (approximately mile marker 138) will be temporarily closed so that professional geotechnical contractors deployed by the Regional Trail Corporation can perform preventative rock scaling work along a steep hillside underneath Kennywood Park and PA-837 that is susceptible to rockfall, downed trees and landslides. This segment of the GAP will remain closed until August 6. There is no detour.

The Great Allegheny Passage Conservancy has arranged for a licensed shuttle service to provide transportation for GAP travelers (including bicyclists and their bicycles) between the official GAP-branded trail access area in Duquesne and Homestead, starting on the morning of July 10. The service will operate from 8:30 am to 4:30 pm, seven days a week, until the rock scaling project is complete. The shuttle fee is $20/person. The shuttle will be first-come, first-served, but may deviate in order to accommodate families traveling together.

🚨 WE ARE OFFICIALLY ABOUT 2 MONTHS OUT! 🚨

This photo is only about 1/3 of the tubes for our upcoming Guinness World Record attempt with the Yough River Rally at Trippy Hippie Brewing 🌊🍻

The current world record is 620 linked tubes… and we’re aiming to bring the record home to Connellsville and Fayette County! 🏆

And the craziest part?
Registration is officially FULL. 🤯

The support for this event has completely blown us away. Because of the overwhelming interest, we have officially started a waiting list in case additional spots become available.

Even if you aren’t floating, we would still LOVE for everyone to come out and be part of the celebration. We are planning a full day of fun with multiple stages, live bands throughout the day, local breweries, food, entertainment, and thousands of people gathering along the Yough River to celebrate this incredible moment for our community. 🎶🍻🌊

This event is bigger than just a world record — it’s about showcasing the Yough River, our trail towns, local businesses, and the incredible momentum happening in Connellsville and Fayette County.

Thank you to everyone who signed up, shared the event, sponsored, volunteered, and supported this crazy idea from the beginning. We can’t wait to make history together. 🔥
