The Town of Northborough is a participant in the Massachusetts Department of Transportation's Complete Streets Funding Program. 

What are Complete Streets? 

Complete Streets are designed and operated to make travel safe, comfortable, convenient, and accessible for all travel modes - walking, biking, transit and vehicles - for people of all ages and abilities.

The concept of Complete Streets encompasses many approaches to planning, designing, and operating roadways and rights of way with all users in mind to make the transportation network safer and more efficient.

Why is this Important? 

The Town received a grant from Massachusetts Department of Transportation (MassDOT) for technical assistance in developing a Complete Streets Prioritization Plan. Once the Prioritization Plan is accepted by MassDOT, the Town will be able to apply annually for up to $500,000 in construction funding to implement projects the MassDOT Complete Streets Funding Program.
