Wondering Why There Are Helicopters Overhead?
Here's your answer if you see them over the next few weeks.

Starting this week, contractors for National Grid will be utilizing helicopters to conduct routine aerial inspections of power transmission lines in Tewksbury and other area communities.
Tewksbury Police want residents to know this is a routine practice and not a cause for concern.
Flights will be during daylight hours and scheduled to be completed within the next three to four weeks. Periods of inclement weather could cause this schedule to be extended. The helicopters will be blue and yellow, or white with blue and/or yellow stripes.
