4/20/2021
Residents, businesses invited to apply
PAWTUCKET – With funding from a new $100,000 grant, Pawtucket-based Groundwork Rhode Island will be planting 140 trees in areas of Pawtucket and Central Falls this spring and fall and is asking the community for help identifying spots.
“We were super excited that we could help Pawtucket and Central Falls,” Amelia Rose, executive director of Groundwork R.I., told The Breeze. “Leandro (Castro) is already overwhelmed by the response from different organizations and residents that want trees.”
Castro, program coordinator, said, “We’re getting so many applications from areas that have a high tree canopy cover, and that’s fine, but we want to make sure we … zoom in on the ones that need it the most.” ....

PAWTUCKET – Now a little more than a year from the planned opening of a new Pawtucket/Central Falls Commuter Rail Station and Bus Hub in Pawtucket, there are still no firm agreements in place for creating the parking needed around the station.
But both local and state officials say they remain confident that they will not be cutting the ribbon on a parking lot-less train station, and that there will be protected designated parking when all is said and done. ....
