The Southborough Trails Committee is asking for you to SIGN THIS STATEMENT OF SUPPORT to show your support and help us to urge the Massachusetts Department of Conservation and Recreation (DCR) to execute a Public Access Plan. The plan will enable us to open a new section of trail that will help to close the Southborough gap for two regional trails. 

We have letters of support written from surrounding Boroughs Loop Trail community leaders to DCR urging them to move forward with the execution of the Public Access Plan. We are asking you to sign this statement of support to SHOW OUR COMMUNITY SUPPORT for this initiative and let DCR know this is important to you, your family, and the Town of Southborough.

The proposed Peninsula Trail is a 1.6-mile section of trail on a parcel of land near the Fayville Dam, north of Rt. 30. This section of trail is part of a 33-mile regional Boroughs Loop Trail (BLT) that connects the trail networks of Marlborough, Northborough, Westborough and Southborough. The trail will also be part of MWRA’s Aqueduct Trail system and will serve as a future connection to Framingham’s Aqueduct Trail on the east side off Pine Hill Road. Constructing this trail will not only help to close the trail gap in Southborough but will also expand recreational and open space resources for the community and increase the walkability of Southborough via trails.

The Committee and the Town of Southborough have a good working relationship with DCR and are very appreciative of the opportunities our community has had for passive recreation on DCR property in our area. With your support, we look forward to expanding this opportunity to include this property as well. 

STAND WITH US and ADD YOUR NAME to this statement of support to help us OPEN THIS TRAIL!

Please SHARE THIS STATEMENT OF SUPPORT to help us reach the masses.
