[edit]DescriptionLongfellow Bridge, Governor Deval Patrick, June 21, 2010 (4721726320).jpg |
Governor Deval Patrick announces the reconstruction of the historic Longfellow Bridge is moving forward, a signature project funded by Governor Patrick's eight-year, $3 billion Accelerated Bridge Program to repair deficient and obsolete bridges across the Commonwealth. The estimated $260 million investment in rebuilding the Longfellow Bridge begins this year with a $20 million early action contract to include preparatory work, with the full reconstruction expected to begin in fall 2011. The Longfellow project is the largest of several investments totaling more than $300 million in rebuilding the bridges along the Charles River Basin, including the BU Bridge, Craigie Drawbridge, and the Western Avenue, River Street, and Anderson Memorial Bridges. "There may be no greater symbol of the neglect our roads and bridges suffered under previous administrations than the Longfellow Bridge," said Governor Patrick. "I am proud to say that today we are ready to reverse the disrepair and will be restoring this beautiful structure to its former glory." The initial work beginning this month on the Longfellow Bridge includes accessibility upgrades to sidewalks, which will provide pedestrian access for the first time since the 1950's, along with steel arch cleaning and priming, masonry cleaning and repairs, pump station upgrades, and temporary utility relocation. This work also provides important information about the bridge that will assist in completing the final rehabilitation project, expected to begin in fall 2011. MassDOT has convened a task force of stakeholders to develop a consensus around the final design of the roadway that will best accommodates all users, including pedestrian and bicycle access. |

Definition of "public record"
Public records are defined in A Guide to the Massachusetts Public Records Law, Published by William Francis Galvin, Secretary of the Commonwealth Division of Public Records, (Updated January 2017) at https://www.mass.gov/files/2017-06/Public%20Records%20Law.pdf on page 40, under M.

This is consistent with the statement at http://www.sec.state.ma.us/ARC/arcres/residx.htm:
Note: Works that are considered "public records" but were not created by a state or municipal government agency may be copyrighted by their author; the Supremacy Clause of the United States Constitution prevents state law from overriding the author's right to copyright protection that is granted by federal law. For example, a state agency may post images online of the final appearance of a building under construction; while the images may be "public records", their creator (eg. architecture/construction firm) retains copyright rights to the image unless the contract with the agency says otherwise.
