100 Roads Program
On April 29, 2008, Mayor Joseph C. Sullivan announced the creation and implementation of Braintree’s 100 Roads Program, an aggressive, three year (2008-2010), $16 million town wide roadway improvement plan for Braintree.
At the formal announcement, Mayor Sullivan said, “the fundamental mission of our new government is to improve the basic core services that affect resident’s quality of life on a daily basis. The physical condition of our roads is simply unacceptable.”
This systematic, need based plan- devoid of politics- ensures that the roads in the worst shape are taken care of first. Utility companies doing work in Braintree must coordinate all their work with the Town. Unless there is a true emergency, utility companies will not be tearing up the new roads.
Mindful of the town’s current fiscal situation, Mayor Sullivan is utilizing existing bonding capacity along with state and municipal Water & Sewer funds to see the program through without adding to the current tax rate.
As of the closing of the 2008 construction season, 41 roads have been completed.
Please see the charts below to see the roads targeted and the allocations for the improvements.
