Bill overview
This bill would allow Massachusetts cities and towns to use their funds to maintain private roads within the community. Currently, municipalities have limited authority to contribute to the upkeep of roads that are not publicly owned. This legislation seeks to provide a mechanism for local governments to address road maintenance issues on private property, potentially improving road conditions and safety. The bill is intended to address a gap in existing infrastructure maintenance responsibilities.
