WEST LEBANON — A coalition of city officials, nonprofits and local businesses is seeking to break through years of gridlock and expand the Mascoma River Greenway through West Lebanon.
At issue is how to link the greenway, which runs along an old rail trail, to newly created trails paralleling Route 10 and the Connecticut River without having to rely on the Twin State Sand and Gravel site, which is served by the rail line but whose owners have not been able to redevelop the property as quickly as they had hoped.
The group, headed by the city’s West Lebanon Revitalization Advisory Committee, plans to advocate for a “West Lebanon Greenway” that could encompass several recreational hotspots in the area.
