Big news about the three Charles River bridge underpasses!
With leadership from Senator Brownsberger and Representatives Hecht, Moran, Walz, and Wolf, the legislature passed a transportation bond bill which includes an amendment that asks for the underpasses, and Governor Patrick has signed it into law. Now the challenge is to persuade the administration to allocate the authorized funds and add the underpasses while the bridge renovations are still being designed. You can help by writing to Governor Patrick to thank him and urge him to tell his Secretary of Administration and Finance to give priority to this project and release the funds.
