The Adirondack Rail Trail Association (ARTA) applauds Governor Hochul’s announcement today that
$13.1 million in funding from the Environmental Bond Act will be used for construction of the final leg of
the Adirondack Rail Trail, to support restoration of the historic Saranac Lake Union Depot and to
improve sections of the trail. The agency says the first phase, which was completed
this fall, is already providing recreational and economic benefits to the North Country.
