The 193rd General Court of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts

AN ACT DESIGNATING THE MERRIMACK VALLEY REGIONAL TRANSIT AUTHORITY TRANSPORTATION CENTER IN THE CITY OF LAWRENCE AS THE SENATOR PATRICIA McGOVERN TRANSPORTATION CENTER.

Whereas , The deferred operation of this act would tend to defeat its purpose, which is to designate forthwith a certain transportation center, therefore it is hereby declared to be an emergency law, necessary for the immediate preservation of the public convenience.


Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives in General Court assembled, and by the authority of the same, as follows:


The Merrimack Valley Regional Transit Authority transportation center, to be built at South Union street and Merrimack street in Lawrence, shall be designated and known as the Senator Patricia McGovern Transportation Center, in honor of Patricia McGovern, former chair of the senate committee on ways and means and state senator for the city of Lawrence. The Merrimack Valley Regional Transit Authority shall erect and maintain suitable markers bearing the designation in compliance with applicable state and federal standards.

Approved December 19, 2002.
