Wedgemere station in Winchester is the start of the Bikeway/Greenway. Though technically one end of the trail, note that it is around the corner from the Mystic Valley Parkway which is a beautiful location to continue your travels. The spur into Woburn terminates at Horn Pond. Another great location to tour on a sunny day in summer or winter. How on earth will the trail cross I93 you ask? You drive over it every day. There is an old train tunnel under the Montvale Ave exit as the path transitions from Woburn to Stoneham. There will be benches, historical markers and landscaping on both sides of the tunnel. you might even see some local young artist work as you go through the tunnel. There are a number of challenging crossings. For this example at Montvale Ave in Stoneham, the crossing was moved for site lines, pedestrian activated flashing lights will be installed and a low fence will be added to slow pedestrians at the curb. |
