Needham Select Board, 11/10/26

It was all about the DPW, as the Select Board stacked their agenda for the evening. Starting with an ambitious plan for the rehabilitation of Highland Avenue, the board also reviewed this year’s construction process and revisited the “Complete Streets” committment, where they welcomed back a familiar face. They also heard of a campaign that could threaten the Needham Commuter Rail line, should the MBTA decide to bring the Orange Line to West Roxbury. Definitely worth a listen!
