The Rhode Island Department of Transportation & Rhode Island Department of Environmental Management have made great progress with a 11.5 mile shared use path. The completed segment begins in Woonsocket, RI and heads south through the towns of Cumberland and Lincoln, RI.

In Ashton, RI, the Bikeway follows the route of the Blackstone Canal for three miles, mostly on top of the historic towpath. While at Ashton, visit the Captain Wilbur Kelly House Museum, a newly opened museum and visitor center adjacent to the Bikeway that offers free tours
