Two new benches were recently installed along the Perimeter Trail at Bedwell Bayfront Park. The Perimeter Trail is a flat, 2.3 mile loop, popular with walkers and runners. In addition to exercise, the trail also provides for wildlife viewing in the surrounding tidal marsh and salt ponds. These intertidal habitats are home to a wide variety of birds and marine wildlife. The new benches will provide a resting spot for multiple forms of recreation and provide vantage points unique to Bedwell Bayfront Park. The installation and location of the new benches was approved by the Parks and Recreation Commission on May 27, 2015.
