January 20, 2023 – Work on trail in Sudbury begins 1/23/23

From the Town of Sudbury:
We are happy to announce that on Monday, January 23, 2023, A.A. Will Corporation and their subcontractor, Stanley Tree Service, will commence active vegetation clearing in the Bruce Freeman Rail Trail Phase 2D corridor. This activity will be the actual start of construction in the field for this rail trail project.

The initial work will commence at the southern end of the Bruce Freeman Rail Trail Phase 2D corridor near Station Road and travel northward. The early stages of this work will include vegetation clearing, including invasive species removal, and chipping within the project’s limit of work in the corridor. This activity will be followed by the installation of erosion control measures, and then the removal of rails and ties in the coming weeks. Grading of the limits of work will begin afterward.

The Planning & Community Development Department intends to post periodic project updates to the Bruce Freeman Rail Trail Sudbury Information page on the Town’s website. Additionally, the Planning & Community Development Department has created a Bruce Freeman Rail Trail Project Updates email list where periodic updates will be pushed out to interested parties. If you or someone you know would like to join this email list (or be removed from it), please email the Planning & Community Development Department at PCD@sudbury.ma.us.
