In August, the Baker-Polito Administration announced its annual Shared Streets & Spaces Program awards, totaling $16.4 million. 

Seven Regional Transit Authorities and 138 municipalities received funds to provide “technical assistance and project funding to help Massachusetts cities and towns design and implement changes to curbs, streets, and parking areas in support of public health, safe mobility, and community growth and revitalization,” according to www.mass.gov. 

Several cities and towns also received grants for the purchase of equipment, including the town of Norfolk which received a grant of $15,335.19 “for snow removal equipment for pedestrian and bicycle facilities.”
