The Farmington Canal Heritage Greenway will eventually run approximately 84 miles from New Haven, Connecticut, to Northampton, Massachusetts, along the route of a historic canal and railway line. About half of it is apparently finished. The longest section (I think) is a paved 21-mile section from Farmington, Connecticut, to Suffield, Connecticut, with a short detour around a missing bridge and a very short unpaved section. Two web sites provide maps and information:

Note that the trail is not only complete (the bridge was finished couple of years ago), but it also extends north to the Southwick/Westfield town line, and at the south end, continues west and north to Collinsville, then north to Rt 44.
Good to know! I guess I need to update the map and description. :)
