8 3 What is a Rail Trail? A rail trail is a shared use path created along a former railroad right-of-way. Cape Cod Rail Trail Nashua River Rail Trial
9 What are the benefits of a Rail Trail? Recreation A place for cyclists, hikers, walkers, runners, inline skaters, cross-country skiers and physically challenged individuals to exercise. Health Help people of all ages and abilities incorporate exercise into their daily routines by connecting them with places they want or need to go. Transportation Provide a safe transportation alternative for residents, workers and tourists of all ages and abilities.
10 Common Questions: Public Participation & Outreach
11 Common Questions: Property Value Being on or near the Minuteman Bikeway can increase the value of a home by 4 or 5 percent, said Brian Greeley, a realtor with Bowes GMAC in Arlington. The old saying in real estate is location, location, location, Greeley said. The path is one of the crown jewels in the area. We re in an age where physical fitness is a high priority. Having access to a bike path is analogous to years ago of having a house across from a park or playground.
12 Common Questions: Crime, Litter & Privacy Salem Evening News, November 2005 Several years ago, we received notice about a proposed plan to convert the former rail bed to a bike path. As abutters we were extremely apprehensive about this proposal. We envisioned that such a path would open access to undesirable activities such as drugs, drinking, graffiti, litter, gangs and neighborhood crime. We were also concerned about a lack of privacy, having streams of people walking and biking through our backyard. As a result of these concerns, the city did provide a fence and some landscaping to minimize impacts to bike path neighbors. Having lived with the bike path now for several years, none of the above concerns have materialized. The bike path has instead become a haven for families; couples strolling hand in hand, mothers with strollers, children pushing doll carriages, families on bikes, joggers, serious cyclists, neighbors walking their dogs, Salem State sports teams working out, etc. In the winter, it is a popular place for snowshoeing and cross-country skiing. Mostly, it has brought neighbors together with a passing hello or to stop and chat while out for a walk. I have never felt unsafe on the bike path, day or night, and we have never had to report a problem of any kind.
13 Common Questions: Methuen Rail Trial Maintenance Mowing Trail cleanups Adopt a Trail Logan Greenway Connector Quequechan River Rail Trail Cape Cod Rail Trail - Harwich
14 Common Questions: Lighting Public parks and recreation facilities are typically open between dawn and dusk. Alternatives to lighting include painting tunnel walls white to help reflect the daytime light.
