Funding Our Roads and Bridges
Today the Massachusetts State Senate is expected to hold a full formal
session where a debate on Chapter 90 road and bridge funding is set to
commence. The bill, filed by Governor
Baker, will provide $200,000,000 in funding for our cities and towns to make
improvements on our roadways.
With the unprecedented snowfall totals of this past winter, many roads
in particular are in desperate need of repair.
Previously, the House of Representatives unanimously passed the bill to
be engrossed by a vote of 155-0 on Wednesday, March 25th. To watch today’s session live that is scheduled for 2:00pm, please click
