Dear fellow Hanoverians:
On April 26, 2011 at 7:00 p.m., a public meeting will be held at the
Memorial Park Elementary School, 1 Col. Brian Duffy Way in Rockland to
discuss the transformation of the West Hanover Branch of the Old
Colony Line to a recreational trail. This section of rail bed is owned
by the Massachusetts Department of Conservation and Recreation and
runs from Abington through Rockland and to the bridge over the
Drinkwater River in Hanover. The rail bed will be cleared of all
rails, ties and brush and compacted to make it suitable for walking or
mountain biking. Residents of Hanover would be able to access the
trail in West Hanover and go all the way to Abington. A representative
of Iron Horse Preservation Society, Inc., who will perform the work,
will be present to answer questions. The general public, business
people, committee and board members and representatives of interested
agencies are invited to attend. Please come and participate. If you
have questions, please contact Hal Thomas (our newest Spirit of
Hanover Award winner!) at 781-878-0060 or halhanover@msn.com
.
