Windham Rail Trail heading toward Salem

Salem Bike-Ped Corridor

The Salem Bike-Ped Corridor along the abandoned Boston and Maine Railroad Manchester to Lawrence Branch will form the primary non-motorized transportation path from the Methuen town line at Hampshire Roads to the existing Windham Rail Trail at Route 111. This plan was envisioned and documented in 2003 when plans were made to widen Route 93. Connections to businesses, residential areas, schools, recreation areas, and Park-N-Ride locations will provide economic growth, more convenience, less traffic congestion, higher property values, and promote active lifestyles.
