Holbrook Regional Solid Waste Transfer Station Coming Soon Unless We Act Now!
 

The Town of Holbrook has entered into a lease for a proposed regional solid waste transfer station on a town owned site at the intersection of 3 Phillips Road and Route 139 – on the Holbrook/Randolph/Braintree town lines.
 
Trash from all over the region will be coming through Braintree roads and neighborhoods to this proposed transfer station.  The proposed waste transfer station. The proposed waste transfer station could create serious safety, health, environmental and decreased property value concerns for Holbrook/Randolph/Braintree. Two million pounds of waste and trash per day, six days per week would be carried up and down Holbrook/Braintree’s route 37 corridor and down South Street, in Braintree, passing by the Kindred hospital. The story is similar for Randolph and Holbrook along route 139, etc. That is approximately 200 additional trucks a day coming and going through our streets.
 
Braintree residents will be living between two regional solid waste transfer stations.
 
Enough is enough!
 
Safety, Health, Environmental and Property Values concerns are real. 
  • Large Trucks hauling waste and trash along Route 37 and Route 139 corridors.
  • Children at increased risk at bus stops along all routes
  • Harmful air pollution from diesel fuel exhaust
  • Trucks and dumpsters leaking waste on our roads
  • Residential property values will drop even more

Please contact Braintree Town Councilor Dan Clifford or Mike Barbuto for more information.
We need your help!
