Radnor officials say the restoration and habitat enhancement in the West Wayne Preserve have begun. Crews recently began planting trees and shrubs. The West Wayne Preserve Wooded Wetlands Restoration and Habitat Enhancement Project is part of the South Devon Area Flood Reduction Project. Before the project began, the preserve included lead-contaminated soil, an overmature stand of ash and other trees, and aggressive invasive plant species. The West Wayne Preserve is a 6.4-acre wooded area along Conestoga Road and South Devon Avenue. One side of the wooded area can also be seen along the Radnor Trail adjacent to the Friends of the Radnor Trail Park. The township purchased the property in 1996 with the idea that it would be used for stormwater management.
