Is it determined that there MUST be chain link fence?
If so, the legislatures and Gov office need to get a life.

A relative lives along the path in MA: Cambridge, Somerville, Arlington, and is real nice. I think there is fencing, but not sure what. Former rail road bed and quite wide in many sections especially near Davis Square Somerville, but is open where roads cross. Therefore not all fencing.

That's the Minuteman Trail. It's used by a lot of people, and in general has been a great addition to the area, but it's not without its issues. The main issue being crime, and police resources that need to be used to patrol the trail.

Minute Man Trail through suburbia, or trail in rural areas, there may be crime in both places. A trail in Lakes area is great for the area, to be used by residents and all visitors alike.

Let us hope you are right. I don't expect it to be nick-named "the crime trail" like the Minuteman is in the Boston area, but to expect it to be trouble free is not possible any longer in this day and age anywhere.
