East Coast Greenway Becoming A Reality

A plan to create a national walking trail along the east coast from Calais, Maine to Key West, Florida is coming closer to reality, according to the Maine Department of Transportation.

"Aiming to connect all the major cities of the East Coast along a continuous, off-road path, the East Coast Greenway spans 2,950 miles from Calais, Maine to Key West, Florida. With the trail now 21 percent open for public use, individuals and communities all along the East Coast are already beginning to enjoy the Greenway's many health and economic benefits. But still, there's much to be done."
