Hopkinton Trails Work and Projects - Needed and Done

	A	B	C	D	E	F
1	Work site (~alpha order)	Priority	Timing	Property manager	Summary	Notes (including Groups who can help or helped)

2	Scheduled
3
4	Fruit Street		Proposed Sep 2024		Jap. Knotweed
5	Berry Acres - Bridge crossing connection to condo/apt complex		Proposed for Oct 2024		We don't need professional bridge builders and focus on that part first, regardless of other work needed because it can get good use, esp. for kids going to the school
6
7	To Schedule
8	Berry Acres			Town	Address beaver-caused flooding	Recent flooding is slightly reduced due to drought, but without controls, we need to plan for worst case, which includes boardwalk on main trail. It will be some time before that is resolved.
9	Berry Acres			Town	Build bridge on side trail off the main trail between Main St. & Constitution Court - and due to beavers, boardwalk on the main trail too.	Need to purchase lumber. Funding from ? - propose to TCMC. However, Beaver flooding should be resolved first.
10	Berry Acres to Chamberlain				Try to maintain access but it's largely on private property - Circo and Danahy
11	Braim Farm bridge				Ask Kim from Con Comm about it
12	Brook Hollow				Bridge just to east of Frankland Rd east entrance is slanted, rocks in that area of trail could be moved for less bumpy walk, brush and barbed wire along the stone wall could be cleared to showcase the stonewall, which is a long one. May need another bridge between the 2 near the Y
13	Center Trail Fitness Equipment		2024		Boy scout project with Trails Club funding
14	Center Trail/Welzel Trail
15	Chamberlain/Whalen subdivision	In progress			Connector could be improved. Need to haul lumbe in for the connection to Field 13.
16	Fruit Street Secret Trail	Low			Clear out the spikes
17	Fruit Street pickleball trail	In Process			Trail was moved to put in the court - P&R is going to replace it working with TCMC
18	Greenwood Trail				Bench cutting about 1/2 mile in from 46 Greenwood/Soccer Trail entrance
19	Greenwood Trail				Construct additional boardwalks
20	HOPE trail, Lot J to Hopkins School to Loop Road	Low		Schools	Two bridges on trail between Hopkins & High School. Small boardwalk near High School, larger bridge (21') across rail bed near Hopkins. Clear fallen log, brush back sides along the rest of the trail. Maybe fill in wet area at the corner where trail from the parking lot joins the rail bed.	Upper Charles Trail route may affect this trail. Would need materials for bridges and ConComm permission for wetlands work. Contact the school too.
21	Hopkinton Meadows Trail				Construct bridge at north end of Hopkinton Meadows trail. This is a fairly long lumber haul ~1/2 mile, and the bridge would be about 20 feet long.
22	Hughes				Mustard pull again
23	Legacy North			OS	Clearing a new trail - loppers for brush and chainsaw for downed wood. Ken and Chuck will tag it in advance.
24	Legacy South				Which should be improved (e.g. southern section, mowing)
25	Peloquin Woods	Addressed by Legacy Farm		HALT	Address beaver-caused flooding	Per Morrie, Legacy Farms may assist (relocate (remove) the beavers)
26	Saddle Hill Trails	Might be done			Making trails, Steve L made a little wider
27	Town Forest - add blue trail signs near trail to where John R lives				Ask John if still needed
28	Upper Charles - 3 segments				Near Legacy is overgrown, near Marathon museum could use work, between Hughes and Granite needs flagging and passable trail for feasibility consideration by engineers
