Rail Trail Grand Opening Sept 13 
 
Trail photoThe City's official ceremony opening the Bradford Rail Trail (Phase One) will take place on Tuesday,  September 13, 10:30 am, at the Roma Restaurant.  Volunteers on the Rail Trail Committee worked for many months alongside city officials to plan the Phase One improvements. The Friends of Bradford Rail Trail (affiliated with Brighside) organized the recent clean-up day on the trail, and are raising funds now for its further development. Donate.  Since the trail property was purchased with a major grant from State, Mayor Fiorentini will recognize the elected State officials who made this trail possible.
Rail Trail Bike Ride and Solar Tour Sept 24
A communty-wide celebration of the Bradford Rail Trail starts at 11:30 am on September 24 (Climate Change Awareness Day: See info on 350.org) The UU Church of Haverhill, in cooperation with the Friends of Bradford Rail Trail, will host a bike ride from the trail  to the National Grid Solar Farm on Hilldale Ave. Riders or walkers of any age may assemble  behind the Roma restaurant & Ace Hardware (29 Middlesex St). The "parade" will roll up the new trail, over the Comeau Bridge, past Krueger Flatbread, and through Lafayette Square to the array on Hilldale (about 2 miles). After a tour of the solar facility at noon, riders will return to the Bradford Rail Trail.
