AI Summary
This bill designates the bridge on Tremont Street spanning Route 3 in the town of Duxbury as the Lewis Sisters Bridge, in honor of Ella Lewis Woodbury, Lillian Mae Lewis Hayes, and Beulah Lewis Fogg. The Lewis Sisters established and operated a residential camp called Camp Twin Oaks, which initially served as a summer destination for Black youth from Boston but later expanded to become a vacation spot for the broader Black community in the eastern United States. The Massachusetts Department of Transportation is required to erect and maintain suitable markers to display this designation.
