CONWAY, MA (FRANKLIN COUNTY NOW) — Governor Healey traveled through western Mass on Thursday making her first stop in Athol to announce new funding for the Innovation Career Pathways Program that provides educational career experiences for students.
The Governor then made her way to Conway where she announced transportation funding that will prioritize Franklin County’s needs to improve roads, bridges, and culverts. The funding algorithm will be based on miles of roads in a town, rather than population, which will direct more funds to rural communities.
