A new path is set to enhance safety and accessibility at Coyote Leomo Park, as discussed in the recent Malden City 2029 Spot Pond Brook Green Public Meeting. City officials clarified that the new trail will run along the east side of the park, distinct from existing paths that are heavily used by families and children.
During the meeting, concerns were raised about the safety of the current paths, particularly those near the basketball courts and playgrounds. Officials confirmed that the new path will not overlap with these areas, aiming to minimize potential conflicts and ensure a safer experience for park-goers.
In addition to the path's design, discussions included the use of permeable asphalt or similar materials to maintain flood storage capacity and enhance the park's environmental sustainability. This approach reflects the city's commitment to balancing development with ecological considerations.
As plans move forward, the community can look forward to a safer and more enjoyable park experience, with construction details expected to be shared in the coming months.
