The mission of the Friends of the Community Path is to link the Minuteman Bikeway and Charles River Path networks, by extending the Community Path along the future Green Line Extension. This 2-mile multimodal Community Path Extension (CPX) will result in ~48 miles of continuous path network through 11 Boston Metro cities and towns, with multi-modal connections to the Green Line Extension and Red Line.
