Bill > H3117

This bill directs the Massachusetts Highway Department, which is responsible for the state's roadways, to develop a detailed timeline for carrying out planned improvements to interchanges along Route 128, specifically between the City of Peabody and the City of Gloucester. These improvements, based on a completed study, are intended to address traffic patterns and involve the reconstruction or upgrading of interchanges, as well as acceleration and deceleration lanes, which are sections of roadway used to safely enter and exit highways. The timeline must include proposed start and completion dates for these projects and be submitted to the Joint Committee on Transportation, a legislative body overseeing transportation matters, by December 31, 2013.
