Where new and old meet. Entrance to the Bruce Freeman Rail Trail at the Lowell/Chelmsford town line. Rt. 3 goes over the tunnel. The Middlesex Canal once ran through this area. The Greenway Connector Trail will head off to the left, through the parking lot in the foreground. The tunnel for the BFRT was constructed as part of the Rt. 3 widening project and was completed in 2006. Taken in October 2008. |

The railroad mile post in the foreground shows 3 miles to the switchyard in Lowell. The graded rail trail with curbing is protected by chain link fence in the middle of the picture. The roof of Old Town Hall and the steeple of the Unitarian Universalist church and flagpole on the town common are in the background. Village Square is to the right.
