What is this study about?

The City of Malden is developing a Master Plan for its 3.25-mile segment of the 11-mile Northern Strand Community Trail. The plan will identify upgrades that make the trail safer, more comfortable, and more connected for everyone who walks, bikes, rolls, or simply enjoys being outdoors.

Why does it matter?

Enhancing the trail can …

  • Improve everyday safety and nighttime visibility with better lighting and crossings
  • Expand healthy, low-cost travel options to schools, parks, downtown, and transit
  • Support local businesses, tourism, and community events
  • Add shade, green infrastructure, public art, and welcoming gathering spaces
