Along a country road in Felton, construction crews have been at work since November assembling a nearly quarter-mile-long metal footbridge over Killens Pond State Park’s eponymous body of water. At present, to access the eastern portion of the park’s trails, hikers have to walk on the shoulder of Killens Pond Road, which is a safety hazard. Soon, hikers will have a dedicated walkway — 10 feet wide and 350-plus yards long — that is compliant with the American With Disabilities Act.
