To the Editor:

Friends of the Bike Path thank all who attended Mattapoisett Town Meeting and voted additional funding for the path. If you've changed your email address or haven't received an email update in a while, please contact the Friends at bdesousa43@comcast.net. It's possible we will need more funding in the fall. If you want to lend a hand in a regional fundraising effort to get funding for design from outside Mattapoisett, please contact me.

Recent updates: Our proposed schedule for environmental permitting as well as a bridge design are moving through the review process. Also, we learned that state construction funding was recommended and will be voted on this week. Another great milestone! We expect bidding later in Fiscal year 2016 and construction soon after.
