Reply to comment by Particular-Exam6585 in Progress on the Mass Central Rail Trail in Waltham. Ultimately will connect Boston to Northampton by Exit_127

You can get on the Weston part of the trail here:

As the other commenter said, you do have to cross a rail road bridge (goes over the Fitchburg commuter rail line) but I’ve done it a bunch of times, is fine/quite safe. Just have to walk across it. The trail to get to the paved section is dirt but pretty clear and can be done with a road bike.

I've seen that bridge while driving by, and I'm guessing it's safer for a certain caliber of person - but not for everyone? Plus, isn't it technically illegal to walk on it?
