It's just that this one project is a repaving project. Repaving is fast out of the chute and thus good for stimulus. Frankly, I think the pavement on Rte. 9 in Southborough is in pretty good shape except for the eastbound right turn lane past White's Corner. I'd like to see some work done on the bridge over Rte. 9 at Crossing Blvd. in Framingham. (But I really think it's a bad design.) Stimulus money doesn’t have to be spent on repaving.

I don't really want them messing traffic up like they did FOREVER down at whole foods area. It's bad enough at rush hour. They can repave in 10 years when I move out west!!

What about road improvements other than “repaving”? Why is the Rte. 9 spending constrained to “repaving” or not “repaving”? As long as the average per mile project cost averages out, who cares? Why the artificial constraint to spend the money on just “repaving” rather than more needed improvements? Who benefits beside paving contractors? Indeed.

That and the Rte. 126 'overpass', meaning the roadway under it also floods very easily.
