Department of Conservation &
Recreation publishes plans for SNETT

Last year, the Department of Conservation and Recreation (DCR) had prepared draft Resource Management Plans (RMPs) for several locations inside the Blackstone Complex. 

The Southern New England Trunkline Trail (SNETT) was one of the properties targeted for improvements. 

Earlier this year, DCR posted the finalized version of the RMP for the SNETT. Go to our website to read about some of the highlights in the report for our section of the trail.  ->   https://www.franklinbellinghamrailtrail.org/2025/06/01/department-of-conservation-recreation-publishes-plans-for-snett/
