Rails to Trails Ribbon Cutting Ceremony

The Town of Easton welcomes one and all to join us for the East-West Rail Trail ribbon cutting ceremony and inaugural walk on Tuesday, April 18, 2023 at 11am. The ceremony will be held at the Rail Trail crossing near the intersection of Hanson St. and Station Ln. 

At the event, Town of Easton Mayor Bob Willey and other local officials will speak and then formally open up the trail to the public. Shortly after, the officials will lead attendees on a walk down the trail for the first time. 

Mayor Willey said, “We hope to see a lot of smiling faces at this event. We are very proud of the work being done on the Rails to Trails system. Our teams have been consistently making improvements to the beauty of the trail, while also making it more usable and safe. It will be nice to show off some of that hard work and to share it with the community.”

This new portion of the trail has seen several recent improvements including the installation of solar powered crosswalk signs, crosswalk pavement markings, and benches and trees donated by the Talbot County Garden Club.

In the event of inclement weather, a rain date is scheduled for Friday, April 21, 2023 at 11am.
