Letter to the Editor: New Castle Should Pursue Development of ChapLine for Pedestrians, Bikers

We are part of The Trust Project

I am writing in support of the proposed New Castle ChapLine. Residents already use the trail and it is in desperate need of an upgrade. Safe, visible, walkable pathways are underdeveloped, which leaves residents to literally chart their own path. My son has regularly used the trail throughout his tenure at Horace Greeley High School. A friend on the cross-country team showed him the path after school one day. Greeley runners have long used the path to get their miles in. Since we are already using it, let’s make it safe.

We should seek outside grants in order to mitigate the expense to the town.
