关于Mass Central Rail Trail

路面
Mixed. The Wayside section (Waltham to Hudson) is paved, except about half a mile of stone dust in Wayland between Cochituate Road and Route 20. The Wachusett Greenways sections (West Boylston, Holden, Rutland, Oakham, Barre) are mostly stone dust, with a few short on-road links.
规定
On the DCR-owned Wayside section, dogs must be on a leash (Town of Wayland notice on DCR rules). Rutland State Park charges an entrance fee in summer.
冬季
Not plowed between Waltham and Sudbury; it is left for skiing. Farther west, only the parking lots and entrances are cleared. 来源
