Wakefield has only one road work project currently slated for state funding under the MassHighway Transportation Improvement Project (TIP) and that project was in danger of being removed from the list altogether.
But some fast action by DPW Director Richard Stinson, Town Engineer Michael Collins, Selectman Albert Turco and Town Administrator Thomas Butler has apparently not only rescued the project but resulted in its being moved up on the TIP schedule (from 2010 to 2009) with $500,000 in additional funding from the state.
The project, known as “Salem Street and Three Intersections,” will involve roadway work on 1,930 feet of Salem Street in Montrose from the intersection of Audubon Road to the end of the Exit 42 ramp off Route 128.
Go Salem Street! You scored 500 grand for some plastic surgery! woo!
