MassDOT awards $11 million for unpaved road improvements

The MassDOT is investing over $11 million to enhance unpaved roads in 48 Massachusetts municipalities through its Unpaved Roads grant program. This initiative aims to improve local infrastructure, reduce maintenance costs, and boost safety for drivers and cyclists. With rural and less-traveled roads often neglected, this funding could significantly benefit communities by modernizing outdated paths, making them safer and more accessible. The move underscores a broader effort to ensure equitable transportation access across the state.
