Concrete for Beacon Street Road Project
The public works department plans a concrete road on Beacon Street from Newton to the Brookline line using general maintenance funds. The section totals about 6000 feet and 28 000 square yards, currently in poor condition. Concrete should last far longer than macadam at similar cost, with the mayor comparing it to ancient Roman roads and citing Zeigler Street as the city’s only other concrete road.
