The Bay Colony Rail Trail is in selectmen’s sights this month, as the board called for a study committee to consider plans for a 7-mile recreational path linking Medfield with Dover and Needham. According to Christian Donner, a member of the nonprofit Bay Colony organization, the committee would generate recommendations before a town vote is taken on whether to support such a project, potentially next year. The selectmen are expected to appoint the committee members during their regular meeting Tuesday night. For more information, contact Donner at cd@baycolonyrailtrail.org. - James O’Brien
