The Southern New England Trunkline Trail (SNETT) is a recreational trail along a former railroad corridor that runs approximately 22 miles from the Franklin State Forest on the east, to the Douglas State Forest on the west. It passes through the towns of Franklin, Bellingham, Blackstone, Millville, Uxbridge and Douglas; and is one of the longest rail-trails in southern Massachusetts. The trail corridor is owned by the Massachusetts Department of Conservation and Recreation (DCR). Most of the trail is currently gravel surface and is used by a variety of recreational users. DCR is actively working in partnership with towns and other trail stakeholders to maintain and improve the trail surface. A 3.7-mile portion of the SNETT in Blackstone, Millville and Uxbridge is also currently being developed as a paved multi-use trail as a part of the Blackstone River Greenway.



The Blackstone River Greenway is envisioned as a 50-mile greenway and paved multi-use pathway that will connect Providence, RI to Worcester, MA along the Blackstone River corridor. In Massachusetts, the Blackstone River Greenway is being planned, designed and constructed in seven (7) separate segments running from the Rhode Island border through Blackstone, Millville, Uxbridge, Northbridge, Grafton, Sutton, Millbury and Worcester.
