History
The bike way runs along South United States Avenue on the right-of-way of a railway corridor abandoned in 1978 when the Sherwin-Williams paint factory closed. The rail corridor was originally part of the Camden and Atlantic Railroad, that was eventually incorporated into the Pennsylvania Railroad, and ultimately into Conrail before its abandonment.

The railway was originally installed to bring workers to Gibbsboro from nearby Lucaston by horse drawn rail carriage.
