Description | The Trout Brook Trail Phase 6 project calls for the construction of a 10' wide bituminous concrete path along the east bank of Trout Brook between Fern Street and Duffield Drive. A portion of the trail will be constructed within the 100-year flood and regulated wetland area, which will necessitate care during construction to minimize environmental and floodway impacts.
