We do not need the development of big box stores which alter (level) landscape for parking lots and kill smaller businesses which we treasure. Our town roads are narrow and some are unpaved and maintaining them would tax inhabitants while diminishing the quality of life an health.

The travel time is 21 minutes from Exit 3 to the Blandford Fairgrounds via Route 23. The cost in dollars and damage to the environment greatly exceed the small benefit of saving 6 minutes of travel time. In fact the AVERAGE time savings is only 3 minutes (half of the 6 minutes, because of the travel time between the Mass Pike and the person's starting and ending locations). For an Algerie Road exit, the travel time on the Mass Pike from Exit 3 would be 17 minutes versus 32 minutes via Route 23, a savings of only 15 minutes. The AVERAGE time savings is about 7 and 1/2 minutes. Again the cost greatly exceeds the small benefit.

Cannot imagine those juggernaut trucks rumbling through our village and Rt 20. I signed a petition about 40 years ago ....Peter Arlos started it. There has been talk about a turnpike exit since the 1950s - it would make Becket a bedroom community of Springfield and Albany!! Imagine a huge influx of young families with children - not that we don't need SOME younger people in town - forcing our contribution to the school district to rise exponentially. Our taxes would go out of sight! Slow growth is fine but I think this monstrous suggestion would radically change Becket far too quickly.

I am already planning to whip my house into shape to put it on the market. I doubt this horror will happen for a decade or more but I do not want to be here IF it happens!
