NORWICH – After more than ten years of work, the Chenango Greenway Conservancy (CGC) has taken one of the first steps in the creation of the Chenango Riverwalk.
On Sept. 1, the CGC announced the formation of a five-year licensing agreement with the Norwich City School District to create and maintain a publicly accessible recreational trail on school-owned property along the bank of the Chenango River. The land is already used by the general public, but the conservancy plans to develop a more formal trail that would be accessible to pedestrians and cyclists.
As planned, the trail will be 10 feet wide, and made out of a hard-packed stone dust surface. Portions of the trail in the downtown area will be handicapped accessible.
The Greenway Conservancy plans to eventually connect this trail to other area walking trails, covering miles of river bank in Chenango County.
