Press release from Milton Board of Park Commissioners

Turner’s Pond Accessibility Project Update

The recently installed 4’ foot wide pathway on the north side of Turner’s Pond will remain closed to the public until further notice.  Our intent was to open this path when the contractor shifted his work to the south path but recent rains necessitate we keep this newly constructed path closed until the turf is better established.

Work has begun on the south side of the pond.  During construction this pathway will also be closed to the public.

The Milton Conservation Commission and the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection have both approved this project and provided the Milton Park Department with an Order of Conditions under which to work.

This project has been funded through a Recreational Trails Program Grant through the MA Department of Recreation and Conservation and private donations.

We apologize for any inconvenience this temporary path closure may cause.
