The Southborough Trails Committee convened on April 24, 2025, to discuss various updates and initiatives related to local trail development. A key highlight of the meeting was the successful assembly of five new benches, which were constructed with the assistance of local students.
Committee members noted that the benches are currently stored in a shed, with plans to transport them to their designated sites for installation. The decision to assemble the benches ahead of time was made to streamline the process, although there had been previous discussions about assembling them on-site.
The committee expressed enthusiasm about the involvement of students in this project, emphasizing the importance of community engagement in enhancing local trails. Further discussions included logistics for the benches' installation and future plans for trail improvements.
Overall, the meeting underscored the committee's commitment to fostering community participation and enhancing the recreational infrastructure in Southborough. Next steps will involve coordinating the installation of the benches and continuing to engage local volunteers in future projects.
