Today’s WeatherThe Ghiorse Postman

In mid-March, the schedule for a Seekonk Planning Council meeting included a discussion item related to the request for a plan for an “industrial zoning district. “

The proposal concerned a retail store, fast-food establishment and grocery store at 3 Fall River Avenue, located between the bustling advertising domain of Route 6 and I-195.

At the meeting, the assignment team’s attorney, Eric Brainsky, made the disclosure.

“I’m excited, and through it all, I can announce to you tonight that it’s going to be Whole Foods,” Brainsky said.

One of the planning committee members can be heard saying out loud, “Yes!In his beard.

“Everyone knows what’s in Whole Foods and what appeals,” Brainksy said.

And he went on to say that Rhode Island’s failure would be a victory for Massachusetts.

“It’s a draw for other people who don’t need to go into Providence and deal with the East Side and parking and traffic, especially with this bridge,” he said. “God knows what it’s going to bring, in five or six years. “”.

“It’s the best for that and we’re very excited,” he added.

A new Whole Foods will allow the citizens of Barrington, Warren and Bristol to attend the Washington Bridge fiasco and shop in Massachusetts.

 

RIDOT Bridge Failure

In December 2023, the western portion of the Washington Bridge closed across the state of Rhode Island due to a “critical power outage. “

The director of RIDOT, Peter Alviti, announced that the bridge would be closed for 3 months.

Then Gov. Dan McKee and Alviti announced in March that the Washington Bridge would want to be replaced.

According to the McKee administration, the estimated amount is between $250 million and $300 million.
