Charlton Route 20 Cow Tunnel

Charlton, MA

A narrow concrete tunnel built in 1926 allowed cattle to pass safely beneath busy Route 20 instead of crossing traffic. The unusual agricultural underpass was preserved during recent trail work and now sits along the Midstate Trail as a wonderfully specific piece of roadside infrastructure.
