Paul Camuso says Winchester took 2-3 years.

Prove it, Prevaricator Paul

Which Bridge, Paul?

Smartass Dr. Wood clumsily speaking with his usual arrogance...and loudness...eek!

Robert Cappucci has a good point about about all the snow on the bridge.

Cappucci also tells ZOPPO company to ANSWER THE TAXPAYERS' QUESTIONS!

Good work, Robert.  8:11 pm

Fellow said he would talk about 2 issues, and only spoke about one

1)Temporary bridge is being designed to include trucks, buses in tonnage...a full complement of two lanes, plowable, used extensively throughout the state, extensively.   Constructed to the same set of standards that a permanent would be.

Second issue he didn't seem to address???? (Why he walked away from the podium???)

 Chief Sacco speaks about details, 8:12 PM

"Today was a particularly difficult day.  We had 10-12 officers on the Winthrop St. paving project, out of town officers assisting us on details."

 Sacco:
" We are short on staff, we won't have the new seven until next year (Paraphrased)

 People have to be patient, there is traffic wherever you go.    The Route 16 ramp is closed, and I hope in 3 years when it opens I hope there are no trucks and buses on that ramp.   ...Greater improvements.

Michael Ruggiero speaks next.

 Blinking light, pedestrians can cross.  There is no light to make it stop.  This pedestrian circulation route, is it possible to make a crosswalk?

 That's a long way to go.  This is a pedestrian area as well.   

 1,200 days, is that an inch a day?  That's concerning, I have a feeling that we could do better.

 I wish there could have been more communication earlier in the project.

Marianne Ashcraft speaks at 8:16 pm.
The woman who owns the building has a lot of questions.  No one spoke to her before the project.
She has 7-10 employees every day, and (the bridge construction) is taking her parking spaces?

no one talked to her until the week before last.
That's kind of disgraceful. 

 She was led to believe there was no mitigation.
Hard to believe with a building that age and the weight of four stories.  She has Medford Auto School in her building, they need parking spaces.

Her concern is (she may leave Medford.)  Parking is crucial to her business.

She's already losing business due to the kiosks!

She'd like to talk to people about the parking.
Is there a phone # to call?

FREDDY DELLO RUSSO doesn't give the phone #, says Mass Dot and Zoppo should sit down with her.

unbelievable.  So inept of Dello Russo not to help a citizen.
