2026 ACEC-NH & NHDOT Technical Exchange Conference

Session 11A: Conway 41755 Multi-Use Path Project
Speaker: Thomas Jameson, NHDOT; Burr Phillips, Civil Solutions; Chris Meier, Mt. Washington Valley Trails
-This project was a partnership between the town of Conway and the Mount Washington Valley Trail Association.  The design and construction were a private public partnership using MWVTA funds and Federal Congestion Mitigation Air Quality (CMAQ) funds.  The project is situated along the Conway Bypass Corridor, town of Conway land, and an easement from Cranmore Mountain Resort.  This project connects the large shopping and restaurant area called Settlers Green to Cranmore Mountain Resort.  This path allows walkers, bike riders, cross country skiers, and snowshoers a safe non-motorized transportation facility to access goods and services in all four seasons.
