if kids want skate board park have them help build it and the movies that are being complained about lets go clean up the neigbor hood for intertainment instead of watching movies. You would be alot more healthy.

I live in Westford. There is nothing wrong with this road. This is an affluent community. There 's no need for this to be done. What a Waste!

Reply to Mark : I have also lived there and I disagree. That road has plenty of potholes that need to be fixed. Roads need maintence no matter what kind of community it is.

Reply to Mark : The goal is to create jobs and as the article points out, Massachusetts is not doing well in spending the money. So, if you think this work is a waste, suggest something else to spend the money on, and create jobs.

I agree, what a WASTE !

Reply to I agree, what a WASTE ! : I live in town and the road was fine before all this construction. The 6M should have been spent on the Fletcher town library. , specifically the video department. Right now I have to spend a dollar if I want to take out a movie. That extra cake could have been used to increase the volume of movies as well as off-sent the rental fee. Either that or use the money to build an awesome skateboard park for the kids in town.
