02 - Would the trail be used for “transportation” in addition to “recreation”?
In Sudbury, the trail would provide access to
- Three Town conservation areas
- Three town recreation areas abutting the trail.
- A fourth recreation area abutting the trail planned for the Mahoney Farm property south of Route 20.
- Nixon school and the high school.
- Shopping areas
- West Concord commuter train station
Several engineering and property issues need to be resolved before an exit near the crossing of the Mass. Central line can be established without using the CSX-owned right of way. If the CSX-owned section were converted into a rail trail, it would cross Route 20 at a spot convenient to the shopping areas.
