The Lamoille Valley Rail Trail
Published on Aug 30, 2018
The Lamoille Valley Rail Trail not only offers some wonderful year-round recreational opportunities for Vermonters and visitors alike, but it is also helping create jobs in rural areas of the state. So far, about one-third of the extraordinarily beautiful trail is complete, and area businesses already say they have seen a positive impact on their bottom lines. I am delighted I could secure federal funds to get this project moving and I look forward to the trail’s completion, which will eventually run for 93 miles from Swanton to St. Johnsbury.
