First Herring Brook Pedestrian Bridge Comment Letter

We appreciate the opportunity to comment on the ENF for the First Herring Brook Pedestrian Bridge in Scituate. The ENF documents the Town’s plan to construct a pedestrian bridge at the site of a former railroad crossing of a tidal stream. The bridge is part of a walking path called the Driftway Trail, a roadside route from Scituate Harbor along Jericho Road, Front Street, and Kent Street/New Kent Street to Driftway/New Driftway Road. The trail will extend to a point across the street from the new location of the Greenbush Station of the MBTA’s commuter rail line on New Driftway Road. At that location, the trail turns into the former railroad right-of-way through the tidal marshes to the North River, the border between Scituate and Marshfield.
