This is end to end along the Somerville Community Path's new 1.7 mile extension along the GLX’s Medford branch from central Somerville into East Cambridge. The new extension links the Somerville Community Path and dozens of miles of multi-use Charles River paths. The opening of the extension created a nearly 50-mile continuous network of paved, off-road paths — connecting Bedford to downtown Boston to Waltham. The new segment includes a 50-foot-high bridge with sweeping views above the train tracks.
