Describe the Organization's Mission:
Part 3 - Line 1
SQUANNACOOK GREENWAYS' GOAL IS TO BUILD, MAINTAIN, AND PROMOTE THE SQUANNACOOK RIVER RAIL TRAIL (SRRT) AS A SOURCE OF RECREATION AND SAFE NON-MOTORIZED TRANSPORTATION. THE SQUANNACOOK RIVER RAIL TRAIL IS A PRESENTLY UNDER CONSTRUCTION CONVERSION OF APPROXIMATELY 3.7 MILES OF ABANDONED RAILROAD IN TOWNSEND AND GROTON MASSACHUSETTS INTO A RECREATIONAL TRAIL BASED ON THE SUCCESSFUL MODEL OF THE WACHUSETT GREENWAYS. THE STONE DUST TRAIL WILL PROVIDE A SAFE ALTERNATIVE TO BIKE-UNFRIENDLY ROUTE 119 AND AN ENJOYABLE ROUTE FOR HUMAN-POWERED TRAVEL BETWEEN IMPORTANT NATURAL, HISTORIC, AND CULTURAL LANDMARKS. THE SRRT HAS POTENTIAL TO BECOME A LONG-DISTANCE TRAIL EXTENDING TO THE NASHUA RIVER RAIL TRAIL IN AYER, MASSACHUSETTS AND TO THE MASON-GREENVILLE RAILROAD TRAIL IN NEW HAMPSHIRE. THIS RAIL TRAIL WOULD BE USED BY THE PUBLIC WITHOUT FEES, AS SPECIFIED IN ARTICLE II OF OUR ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION.
Describe the Organization's Program Activity:
Part 3 - Line 4a
CONSTRUCTION OF THE FIRST 1.1 MILES OF THE SQUANNACOOK RIVER RAIL TRAIL WAS COMPLETED IN 2021. THE RAIL TRAIL HAS ALREADY BECOME VERY POPULAR. A USER COUNT WAS HELD ON OCT. 24, 2021, AND OVER 100 PEOPLE USED THE TRAIL THAT DAY. PHASE 2 OF THE RAIL TRAIL, A 0.71 MILE SECTION FROM OLD MEETINGHOUSE ROAD TO HARBOR CHURCH IN TOWNSEND, MA, WAS BEGUN IN DEC. 2021.
SQUANNACOOK GREENWAYS IS PURSUING THE CONSTRUCTION OF A PEDESTRIAN BRIDGE OVER THE SQUANNACOOK RIVER ON OLD MEETINGHOUSE ROAD IN TOWNSEND. THIS BRIDGE WOULD PROVIDE EASY BICYCLE, PEDESTRIAN, AND EQUESTRIAN ACCESS FROM THE LARGEST DEVELOPMENT IN TOWNSEND, TIMBERLEE PARK, TO THE SQUANNACOOK RIVER RAIL TRAIL. IN 2021 OUR CONTRACTOR HAS BEEN WORKING HARD ON PERMITTING ISSUES.
