South Portland
Reported: Fall 2023 | Updated: August 22, 2024 | A quarter-mile section of the South Portland Greenbelt/Eastern Trail is closed for construction at the Betsy Ross House. A detour is in place. The detour begins where the Greenbelt intersects with Preble Street and continues down Preble Street to Broadway. It then follows Broadway until it reaches Sanford Street and reconnects with the rest of the path. This closure and detour is expected to remain in place until early 2025.

Reported: January 14, 2024 | Updated: September 4, 2024 | The Eastern Trail section through the Scarborough Marsh experienced several major washouts this past winter and spring resulting in serious damage to the trail.
