HINSDALE — Berkshire Natural Resources Council celebrated the recently completed accessibility renovations at Old Mill Trail with a public ribbon-cutting ceremony on Wednesday.
The initiative took about 2 1/2 years, recently concluding with the renovation of the parking lot.
“We first built this trail to be accessible several years ago but until this summer, the accessibility was in name only. The parking lot was not accessible to mobility devices, and if you can’t get out of your car, you can’t go for a hike,” BNRC President Jenny Hansell said.
