S 2391 Massachusetts Senate · 194th Legislature (2025-2026)

An Act to remediate and reopen the visitor information center on I-95 in Northern Bristol County for traveler safety and convenience and to promote regional tourism and economic development

This bill directs Massachusetts' transportation department to form a working group within 90 days to study reopening a visitor information center on I-95 in Mansfield (Northern Bristol County). The group must analyze removing debris, improving safety/accessibility, adding EV charging stations, redesigning the facility, and creating staffing plans to promote tourism and local businesses. The study must cover costs, commercial uses like tourism ads, and visitor tracking, with a final report due by June 1, 2026. It does not fund or immediately reopen the center but sets a process for future action. The bill directly affects travelers using I-95 and regional tourism businesses seeking promotion.
