S.M.A.R.T. (a Jersey Off Road Bicycle Association chapter) worked again today within Mercer County Park. Today's volunteers rebuilt a bridge along the a trail on the northern side of the park that continues to be vandalized and torn down. We hope this beefed up bridge keeps the bridge intact for a a bit longer.
