Subject:Barnstable Rail Trail awarded grant money
Good Morning Ann,
In case you have not heard the good news from DPW, the Town of Barnstable was awarded 400,000 for phase 4 of
the rail trail. This money is to be used for the design, engineering, and permitting for the trail implementation.
The description for the grant is as follows:
Cape Cod Rail Trail Phase 4 is a proposed 12- foot wide shared-use path approximately 10 miles long. It is
essential to the state and regional vision of a continuous shared-use path from the Cape Cod canal to
Provincetown. Phase 4 will connect to Phase 3 (Yarmouth and Barnstable) on the east, anticipated to begin
construction in 2025; and it will connect to the Town of Sandwich segment on the west, currently under
construction.
This grant was awarded by the Commonwealth.
Thank you,
Grayce Rogers
