• Agreement reached to reopen Walpole shortcut to Gillette Stadium with safety changes (nbcboston.com) — Access from Walpole's Shufelt Road trail to Gillette Stadium is set to reopen after a dispute with Rodman Ford, but with new safety lighting and warning signs about walking at your own risk. Local homeowners who rent parking and fans using the shortcut will again be able to walk through, as the town and dealership refine plans to keep the path lit, clean, and clearly marked.
