Ride: From the signed Theodore Green Boulevard public eastern trail lot follow the main paved rail trail west for up to two miles and retrace. Stop and walk road crossings. Keep to the separated trail; no road detours, naval property or Mattingly Avenue street approach is included.

Surface and effort

Paved former railroad bicycle path. Generally gentle former rail corridor; road crossings, wet leaves and bridge transitions require care.

Crossings and shared use

Yield to walkers and slow at junctions. Stop and look at every street crossing; do not use traffic lanes to bypass a closure. Yield to pedestrians, keep right, and slow at blind corners. Stop at barriers; never use a traffic-road detour to bypass a trail closure.

Hours, costs and access

Use daylight and obey posted trail, park and parking hours. Follow current public visitor-parking terms; reserved activities and events have separate conditions.

Reviewed 2026-10-22. The county identifies a thirteen-mile bicycle trail and its dedicated White Plains access; town material confirms pavement. County rules require daylight use and yielding at every road crossing. An older town construction notice explicitly refers to 2015 and does not establish a current 2026 closure or reopening. Current posted works and device rules take precedence. This is a source review, not a same-day inspection. Recheck the linked manager before travel.

Map and Directions

Use the named public start and its posted parking signs. The map reference identifies the facility or selected trail area; it is not a surveyed parking stall or navigable route line. Bicycle and e-bike rules can differ; only ordinary bicycle use is established unless noted.
