Bill > S2414

This bill authorizes the Essex North Shore Agricultural and Technical School (ENSATS) to construct a tunnel connecting its north and south campuses, as well as linking to the Danvers Rail Trail, which is part of the Massachusetts Rail Trail system. The legislation provides up to $5,000,000 in funding for the project and highlights several key objectives: improving student safety, enhancing campus accessibility, and reducing local traffic congestion. By establishing this tunnel, the bill aims to create a more integrated and efficient campus environment that benefits both the school's students and the broader community. The bill explicitly notes that this project can proceed despite any existing laws, rules, or regulations that might otherwise prevent such construction, effectively creating a specific legal authorization for this infrastructure project.
