The Gateway City Parks Program, through which EEA paid for the park and trail, is a flexible program, providing municipal officials in the 26 eligible communities with funding for all phases of park and trail development, including acquisition, design and construction of parks, greenways, and other recreational facilities. In October , the Baker-Polito Administration announced its commitment to completing the design, permitting and construction of the Mystic River Bicycle and Pedestrian Bridge.

Since , the Commonwealth has awarded grants to cities and towns through the Parkland Acquisitions and Renovations for Communities PARC , Local Acquisitions for Natural Diversity LAND , and other community investment programs, which assist communities and non-profit organizations in creating or restoring parks and acquiring land for conservation to expand open space and recreational assets for the public to enjoy in perpetuity. Thoughtful master plans are helpful to neighborhoods, towns, and cities as they look to their future.

We plan ways to connect residents with the resources and open spaces in their communities. We respect their significance while preserving, restoring, and rehabilitating these cultural resources. Increasing urban density has created a demand for Complete Streets that accommodate all users: motorists, bicyclists and pedestrians. We design universally accessible sidewalks, bicycle lanes and separated off road trails with associated amenities for people of all ages and abilities.
