Town Planner Ken Buckland hopes state grant money will fund a concept plan and feasibility study for a riverfront boardwalk in downtown Wareham. Officials have explored the idea of a riverfront boardwalk for years one concept drawing for the boardwalk dates back to 2013.
Buckland said grant funds could “give us a bit more information about cost and issues associated with its construction.”
Town Administrator Derek Sullivan said he thought it was a good idea, though he noted that the boardwalk was probably still years away from becoming a reality.
