The Bay Circuit Trail and Greenway - An Original Bay State Concept: First proposed in 1929 as an outer "emerald necklace," linking parks, open spaces and waterways in Massachusetts, from Plum Island to Kingston Bay, the Bay Circuit idea - a precursor of today's national greenways movement - continues to take shape. Focused on a 200 mile corridor of 50 cities and towns surrounding Boston, the Bay Circuit Trail connects the "jewels" of the "emerald necklace." Trail maintenance is pretty much the responsibility of the various towns located near trail sections. The Trail Maintenance Advisory Committee (TMAC) was formed to advise and assist the BCA trail maintainers. The TMAC holds meetings during most months at various MA towns located near the trail. There appear to be about 34 towns having a contact person for the trail, and the information given above is for just one of them.
