[Massplanners] Rail Trail/Bike Path Questions

[Daniel Amstutz]

The Tri-Community Greenway in Winchester, between the Wedgemere and 
Winchester Center Commuter Rail Stations, has a portion of the greenway that 
is essentially shared with a driveway that leads to a parking lot for Ginn 
Field. See https://goo.gl/maps/qZenqgywk6YNMVyT7


The Town of Arlington DPW plows the Minuteman Bikeway in Arlington during 
the winter. Lexington also plows their part of the Bikeway.

Hello Planners, 


I have two "rail trail" related questions:


1.  Do any of you have rail trails/bike trails that co-exist with driveways? 
 So not bike lanes along roads, but bike paths that get regular, if minimal, 
vehicular use? 
2.  Do any of you maintain rail trails or separate bike paths in winter?


Thank you! 


-Kathy
