There’s a new section of the Mispillion Riverwalk, east of downtown Milford. Construction is complete, and the walkway and 30-foot floating dock is visible to travelers on North East Front Street, but some residents are left wondering how to access the improved area.
To say that provides an unexpectedly beautiful view of the Mispillion River is an understatement.
Unlike the narrow river flowing through downtown Milford, this portion of the river is wide and its banks curve and wind around toward Goat Island and eventually the Delaware Bay.
Residents driving to this portion of the Riverwalk should follow Marshall Street to a small, paved parking area.
Pedestrians walking from downtown need to detour at Memorial Park, then walk through the Calvary Church parking lot to Columbia Street and then access the path.
The city’s parks are closed from dusk to dawn, and alcoholic beverages are prohibited.
Read more about this park in the March 28th Milford Chronicle.
