FRYEBURG, Maine â Legislators in Maineâs transportation committee last week heard a proposal to study extending the Mountain Division Trail, a paved recreation path, from Fryeburg to Standish.
A group called the Mountain Division Alliance would like to see the trail run 50 miles from New Hampshire to Portland. It would follow the old Mountain Division Railroad tracks that havenât been used in decades.
A 4-mile stretch has already been completed in Fryeburg, along with a 5-mile stretch from Windham to Gorham and a 1-mile section in Portland.
The Mountain Division Alliance in recent days was urging the public to support a bill, LD 672, pending in the legislature that calls for a study of expanding the Mountain Division Trail 28 miles from Fryeburg to Standish through the towns of Brownfield, Hiram and Baldwin.
