And, walking along route 3 with traffic would present an entirely different experience than what the proponents of the WOW trail have envisioned. it is just never going to happen.
This is exactly what I was referring to. For example - my property on Paugus has no room on the lake side for a sidewalk, there may be 6" between the white line and the guard rail, and beyond the guard rail is a sheer drop to the lake. Just down the road from my property is another which would require substantial work for a side walk to be put in on the northern side / non-lake side, if it were even possible. There are many properties along the Blvd. where a sidewalk would simply be a massive undertaking.
