Stimulus paving....

Couple of questions that need answering.

-Who watches for the crime? Not all homes are occupied all week all seasons.
-Who does it get reported to?
-Is the police dept going to care what happens on the trail?
-Who will pick up the trash and debris? There is none now.. But will be. And you cant say volunteer's because you can't count on anyone to do free work in this economy.

-Who is going to pay the claim when someone gets hit but a train?- fence no fence.

Who is going to replace the fence when it gets cut up or destroyed by kids or angry homeowners that are forced to look at it?

The trail brings crime and undesirablesl and would need to be watched by police constantly. On the trail you speak about in Arlington and Lexington there have been cases of sexual misconduct on the path. The most extreme being a middle aged man, completely nude laying in leaves watching pretty girls jog by. Can you imagine what he was doing...

The money would be better spent toward the red flagged bridges and roadways that need replacement or will need replacementg in the near future.

As far as the state owned land being opened to the public you are very wrong. The land is owned by the RR and only people with a lease and a hefty insurance policy have the right to cross the track in front of thier abutting property only. Everyone else is trespassing.
