Fore River Bridge Information Page

Representative Bradley has prepared this page to keep residents informed of the Fore River Bridge replacement project.

The Massachusetts Department of Transportation held a public meeting on February 24, 2010 at Hingham Town Hall to describe the scope of the project, proposed design concepts, and the timeline for construction of the new bridge.  Attendees asked officials about issues such as the design and operation of the proposed bridge, noise issues, and potential impacts on traffic, residents and local businesses, to name a few items.
