Conceptual design of the stormwater wetland. Recreational and educational amenities will be incorporated in the later design phases. Install a circulation system to provide access to key features and allow for pe- destrian loops of various lengths. For example, a boardwalk from the gath- ering area through existing wetlands and down to the river can connect to links through the proposed Cambridge stormwater wetland to the Fitchburg Cutoff Trail, as well as to a proposed bridge across to the north side. Further west, a boardwalk from the path would end in a small, quiet viewing deck. An- other boardwalk is proposed leading to Perch Pond and connecting with a bridge over Wellington Brook to a sta- bilized aggregate trail running between the Little River and Hill Lstates apart- ment complex. This trail would con- nect to Little Pond and continue with a bridge across the Little River to the north side joining the trail along the Belmont Upland. 5. Place interpretive/educational signage at strategic locations. For example, signage along the trail leading to Perch Pond could identify former Black Is- land and historic uses like the railroad and ice industry. At the Cambridge stormwater wetland, information could be provided on the history of this wet- land system from the days of the Great Swamp to the present. The trail along Hill Instates could present the agricul- tural history of this area. 6. Place interactive educational features at strategic locations, such as real-time water quality monitoring boards. ALEWIFE MASTER PUN FIND
