State Representative Carolyn Dykema is pleased to announce the passage of legislation today authorizing $200 million in funding for the maintenance and upkeep of municipal roads and bridges across the Commonwealth. The funding will be distributed directly to municipalities.
The $200 million will result in municipalities, including Holliston, Hopkinton, Medway, Southborough and Westborough, receiving a 29% increase in transportation funding over the last fiscal year. Rep. Dykema strongly supported the funding which will help maintain local roads and which recognizes the significant roadway repairs that will be necessary due to the harsh winter.
