Mass Turnpike Authority
From Scan New England Wiki
|
Massachusetts Turnpike Authority The Massachusetts Turnpike Authority no longer exists and has been merged into Mass DOT. The VHF Turnpike maintenance Repeaters are still in use by "Mass Pike" maintenance workers. In short mostly only administrative changes. Winter 2010-2011 is when there might be more visible changes with the "Mass Pike" maintenance/plowing operations. The only changes to MSP Troop E are administrative.
