Simple trail access is available at the following locations:
Smith Street crossing
Broad Meadow Road crossing
Loop between Station Street and Court Street
Common Street crossing
Sand Hill Road crossing
Ample parking is presumably available on the presumed site of the Groton Depot
between Broad Meadow Road and Station Avenue.
The library is about a quarter-mile east of the on Broad Meadow Road
crossing then south on Playground Road. A playground and associated chemical toilet are
located a short distance south of the library.
Heavy rush hour traffic in Groton during the Webmaster's field check precluded any further search for trail facilities near Station Street and Broad Meadow Road trail exits. No facilities were observable near any other trail exit!
