WALTHAM, MA — If you drive around the South Side or near Whittemore Elementary School, watch out for a bit of a change. Starting Saturday July 14 at 9 a.m., Hovey Road becomes one way. Permanently.
The idea, according to city officials is that the change will reduce cut-through traffic in the neighborhood and help prepare for a new school drop-off lane with newly painted cross walks just in time for the start of Whittemore Elementary's new school year in September.
