Upper Charles Trail Gets State Grants: $53K for Holliston, $300K for Ashland

By MyFM’s Claire Beverly – The Upper Charles Trail bike path has gotten an infusion of cash thanks to some state grants. In all, $12 million in grants went to several rail trail projects across the state with about $53,000 going to the Holliston Trails Committee to fix some flooding issues near the Phipps Tunnel. In all the Upper Charles Trail is about 14 miles from Sherborn to Hopkinton through Milford although there is still a bit to go. Patch reports Ashland has gotten $300,000 to acquire two pieces of land to help complete the trial.
