Mass. Central Rail Trail in Weston and Waltham. Solid green lines indicate trail sections that have been completed; the longer green dashed line marked (2) in Waltham is a trail segment that's currently under construction (as of 2022), and the grey dashed line in the center marked (1) is a half-mile segment, currently in design, that would utilize two abandoned railroad bridges over Interstate 95 and the MBTA's Fitchburg Line regional rail tracks.
