About the Greenway Trail: This shared-use trail is intended to serve bicyclists, walkers and joggers, rollerbladers and strollers in the summer months, and cross-country skiers and snowshoers in the winter. It would be entirely off-street and free from car traffic. It would connect the soon-to-be 50+ mile Northern Rail Trail in the north to the eventual Salem-Concord bikeway to the south, to one day form a 110+ mile off street path from the Massachusetts to Vermont border. The path is to be universally accessible to wheelchairs and compliant to the Americans with Disabilities Act to the extent possible. It is intended the Path serve both transportation and recreation purposes, connecting villages, providing access to the Merrimack River and adjacent open space, and providing safe and inviting health and fitness opportunities. The Path will provide spectacular river views as well as access to the River when possible. The proposed Merrimack River Greenway Trail would diversify Concord's transportation system by adding a green, healthy, non-motorized transportation, and would add a unique transportation resource for residents of the Concord area.
