Busy, Busy, Busy....

As you may have noticed I haven't posted in over a month. It's not because there hasn't been anything of interest. I've just been that busy. I'll try to get some posts over the next week. Possible topics?
  • rail trails - theres been an article in the T&G about the price for the trail between Leominster and Fitchburg, a letter to the editor in the S&E on same, and the opening of the steam line trail in west Fitchburg
  • communter rail - legislators rode the train from Fitchburg to Boston, there's been articles about failing equipment and today's T&G has an editorial, and a quote from Dan Grubauskas
  • Walmart's plans for Lancaster - do any of the local communities and their elected officials including, Lancaster, Clinton, Bolton, Fitchburg, Lunenburg, Ayer, worse of all Leominster have a clue how to manage traffic?
  • then there's councilor Boisvert's petition to redesign the Clarendon/Daniels St intersection.
  • the Rt 12 project - any progress on the takings, should the current TIP from the MRPC include 1.5 Million in CMAQ funding for Rt 12
  • the Mass Ave / John Fitch Hwy intersection - designated most dangerous in the city
  • what ever else might be on folks minds

I won't have time to discuss them all so drop an e-mail and let me know what issues are of interest.
