WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. — The town is asking users of Cole Field, Linear Park and the Spruces to heed warning signs and respect workers building the Mohawk Bike Path.

 

The town reports that people have been "removing sedimentation controls, survey markers and signage" and using profanity toward workers on the job site.

 

"If this pattern of destructive and abusive behavior continues, it will be necessary for the town to close the Spruces and other access points for the duration of the summer," according to a news release on the letterhead of interim Town Manager Charlie Blanchard.

 

The bike trail, which runs from Syndicate Road near North Street to the Spruces Park on Main Street, is expected to be completed this summer or early fall.
