Final Belmont-Ferry Farm trail phase faces cancelation, decision expected in November

The Stafford County Board of Supervisors has voted to defer the decision to return funding meant for the final phase of the Belmont-Ferry Farm Trail until November.

The board had agreed at its meeting on Sept. 21 to cancel the sixth and final phase of the project to complete the trail. The two-mile trail runs winds through the southern section of the county and the Historic Port of Falmouth Park.

The reasons cited for this canceling the final phase of the trail were a lack of funding to complete the project and issues regarding topography, land acquisition, and approvals from the Virginia Department of Transportation. The board plans to revisit the matter with a revised letter to VDOT at their next meeting Nov. 16.
