This issue was first raised with the DEP in the summer of 2009.

Rain's inevitable coursing towards the path of least resistance has caused the gravel bed of the Rail Trail to wash down the hillside. The rail trail roadbed has been shored up by the Twon (see pics)

The Town and State have finaly fixed the eroded spot where the North Bridge entrance connects with the Rail Trail. It is shored up quite nicely as the photos indicate.
