Get Involved
The Beacon-Hopewell Rail Trail Study is being guided by an Advisory Committee with representatives from Dutchess County, New York State Department of Transportation, Metro-North/MTA, City of Beacon, Village of Fishkill, Town of Fishkill, Town of East Fishkill, and the Hudson Highlands Fjord Trail. We’re also working with elected officials, local boards, key agencies, community organizations, and potential rail trail users, like you!
We recently held a series of virtual and in-person events to get feedback and help guide the planning process. Please see below to view the presentations:
