U.S. Senators John Fetterman and Bob Casey, along with Representative Chris Deluzio, announced a nearly $25 million grant from the U.S. Department of Transportation to support the Borough of Sharpsburg’s 'Reconnecting the Allegheny Riverfront to Economic Opportunity Project.' This federal investment aims to transform Sharpsburg's riverfront by developing a multimodal transportation network on a former brownfield site. The project will include transportation infrastructure, trails, and public spaces, and will extend the Three Rivers Heritage Trail to Millvale. Borough Manager Christine DeRunk highlighted the significance of the grant in a recent interview. Representative Deluzio called it a 'historic moment.'

Thrilled to bring $25 million in federal funds to Sharpsburg. This transformational investment can shape a community for generations and get folks connected to the beautiful Allegheny River. I'll always fight to bring home more investments to Western PA. https://t.co/iNX10FB21U
