Why is a community path from Belmont Center to the Alewife T Station important?
A. It will be a convenient route to the Red Line subway and easier access to a network of bike paths leading in all directions from the Alewife T station, including the Minuteman Bikeway. Belmont’s path is part of the Mass Central Rail Trail, expected one day to stretch 104 miles from Boston to Northampton, generally along the route of the former Massachusetts Central Railroad line. It would give residents improved low-cost travel options to and from Boston, save energy, and reduce greenhouse gasses from auto exhaust. Q.
