HD 5613 Massachusetts House · 194th Legislature (2025-2026)

An Act designating a segment of Route 20 as the Brodeur Curve

This bill designates a specific segment of Route 20 (between mile markers 104.6 and 105.1 in Oxford) as the "Brodeur Curve" to honor Michael and Kyle Brodeur of Charlton. It requires the Massachusetts Department of Transportation to install and maintain markers at this location, commemorating the Brodeur family's advocacy against impaired driving following a 1997 accident that killed Michael and left Kyle with severe brain injuries. The bill focuses solely on naming the road segment and installing signage, with no policy changes or direct impacts beyond recognition.
