Council weighs in on proposed Ped/Bike Path extension
ELLSWORTH Three seasons of walking may trump four seasons for the proposed Ellsworth Ped/Bike Path extension, after councilors heard details of a draft feasibility study on Feb. 25 and questioned costs and liability in maintaining the extension path during winter snow and ice if the project moves forward.
As proposed, the 0.75-mile connector trail would begin at the intersection of Birch Avenue and Spring Street, where the Ellsworth trail now ends, continue down Spring Street and cross Main Street to connect with the Sunrise Trail at the intersection of Beals Avenue and High Street.
