  • AAA: Ring in the New Year responsibly

    [ad_1]

    WESTWOOD — As 2025 comes to a close, AAA Northeast urges those who plan to take part in year-end holiday celebrations to designate a sober driver.

    In December 2023, 1,038 people were killed in drunk-driving crashes nationwide — with more than a quarter of those fatalities occurring during the Christmas and New Year holiday periods according to the latest data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Nighttime driving is significantly more dangerous than daytime driving: 30% of drivers involved in fatal crashes between 6 p.m. and 5:59 a.m. were drunk.

    [ad_1]

    A trek by state Senate Minority Leader Bruce Tarr, R-Gloucester, and local leaders over the bridge to Connecticut recently may make Bay State highways safer from wrong-way drivers.

    Tarr’s visit to the Connecticut Department of Transportation’s Highway Operations Center in Newington to see a potential technological solution to the problem comes after a driver is accused of heading north on Route 128 south on the A. Piatt Andrew Bridge and colliding with a car carrying four young adult Gloucester residents.

    Peabody man charged with 6th OUI in motorcycle crash

    [ad_1]

    PEABODY — A Peabody man was arrested on a sixth drunk driving offense earlier this month after crashing a motorcycle into a stone wall while under the influence.

    The incident occurred just before 11 p.m. on Oct. 5 at the corner of Franklin and Kosciusko streets.

    George Bradley, 55, was allegedly speeding down Franklin Street on a Harley-Davidson motorcycle when he noticed a stop sign too late, tried to break and “left a skid mark for approximately 50 feet before disregarding the stop sign and crashing into the stone wall of 5 Kosciusko St.,” according to a police report.

    Bradley was evaluated at the scene for injuries, but refused to be taken to the hospital, police said. While the motorcycle was dented in the crash, the wall was undamaged.

    Police said Bradley failed field sobriety tests at the scene and was arrested.

    In addition to a sixth drunk driving offense, he was charged with operating an unregistered and uninsured vehicle, negligently operating a vehicle and driving with a suspended license.

    Police said the motorcycle was owned by someone other than Bradley.

    The Essex County District Attorney’s office confirmed that Bradley did have his driver’s license revoked for life upon his fifth OUI offense, per state law.

    He is being held without bail following a dangerousness hearing.

  • Plum Island drawbridge work resumes

    Plum Island drawbridge work resumes

    [ad_1]

    NEWBURY — Repairs to the Plum Island Turnpike drawbridge resumed Thursday, reducing the only way on or off the island to one lane – a traffic pattern that is expected to remain for roughly two months, according to town officials.

    As a result, the Massachusetts Department of Transportation will employ a temporary alternating traffic pattern on the bridge as crews complete structural steel repairs. Work is scheduled to take place from 6 a.m. to 3 p.m. until mid-December but crews may work around the clock if necessary.

    In a statement, Newbury police Chief Patty Fisher called the repairs “necessary” and said she is pleased work is taking place when it will have the least possible impact on Plum Island traffic.

    “I appreciate that it’s expected to be completed before the first snowfall,” Fisher said. “It goes without saying that people traveling through the single lane should use caution and abide by the traffic signals and speed. Be mindful that pedestrian and vehicle traffic are sharing the lane.”

    While temporary traffic control signals and barriers are in place, a 24/7 signal-controlled, alternating traffic pattern will be used as work is performed beneath the bridge deck.

    Signs and police details will also be used to guide drivers through the work zone. Drivers traveling through the work zone should expect delays, reduce their speed and use caution as the eastbound/westbound traffic patterns are subject to change, according to MassDOT.

    Fisher said workers will be often stationed under the bridge.

    “Just because you can’t see them, doesn’t mean they aren’t there,” Fisher said.

    The work is being completed as part of a $7.7 million districtwide drawbridge operations and repair contract.

    In March, MassDOT noted some deterioration in the steel along with some heaving of a limited portion of the bridge deck. MassDOT worked with the U.S. Coast Guard to implement a detour to keep the bridge closed to marine traffic until the interim repairs were performed, according to a MassDOT spokesperson.

    That prompted MassDOT officials to devise a plan to shift motorists away from the center of the bridge where deterioration was discovered so that the interim repairs could be made. The temporary traffic plan was implemented April 19 right before those repairs began.

    An April 19 advisory from MassDOT stated the drawbridge would not be open to marine vessels through Aug. 5 to allow for repairs to the road surface. The speed limit on the bridge was reduced and traffic was periodically limited to one lane to allow the state to restore the bridge to full capacity. Because one lane will remain open at all times, Newbury first responders will not be stationed on the island during construction, according to Fisher.

    “We only station responders there if we anticipate the turnpike will flood or they’re opening the bridge,” the police chief said.

    Fisher encourages residents to sign up for the town’s CodeRed rapid response notification system and to follow the Newbury Police Department on Facebook for the latest project information and for important messages throughout the year.

  • 9/11 Remembered on the North Shore

    9/11 Remembered on the North Shore

    [ad_1]

    DANVERS — At 8:46 a.m., American Airlines Flight 11 crashes into the North Tower of the World Trade Centers in New York City.

    At 9:03 a.m., United Airlines Flight 175 crashes into the South Tower.

    At 9:59 a.m., the South Tower falls.

    At 10:29 a.m., the North Tower collapses.

    Within the same time frame, at 9:37 a.m., a third plane destroys the west face of the Pentagon, and at 10:03 a.m., a fourth plane is crashed into a field outside of Shanksville, Pennsylvania, by brave passengers when they realized that the intent of the terrorists who had hijacked the plane was to crash it into the White House or the U.S. Capitol.

    On Wednesday, 23 years later, on Sept. 11, 2024, the Danvers Fire Department — as well as public safety agencies and local officials and residents across region and the country — gathered again, at 10 a.m., to commemorate the tragedy, the heartache and the bravery of that day.

    Moments later, the firetrucks rolled out of the Danvers station, red lights flashing, to commemorate the date. Six ranks of uniformed Danvers firefighters stood at attention.

    The first alarm was sounded, four bells of three chimes each, for the firefighters who went out to protect and save others, not knowing what lay ahead, or whether they would even return.

    A single bagpiper played a lonely tune, The Sounds of Silence, and chaplain Eric Baker recalled to the audience how that song “still reminds us of the brokenness of this world.”

    He reminded the audience of the death toll that day: 2,753 at the World Trade Center including the 343 firefighters who died trying to bring them to safety, 184 at the Pentagon, and the 40 passengers aboard UA Flight 93, who crashed their plane into the ground rather than allow the hijackers to fly on to Washington.

    The audience stood for a moment of silence to remember all of them.

    Then the last alarm sounded, three bells of three chimes each, the signal that the fire was extinguished, and the firefighters returned to their stations.

    The ranks of Danvers firefighters standing at attention saluted in memory of those who were lost on that awful day.

    The bagpiper played Amazing Grace, and its sounds faded slowly into the distance.

  • Salem Harbor boater suffers head injury

    Salem Harbor boater suffers head injury

    [ad_1]

    The Salem Harbormaster’s office reported Sunday that a man suffered a head injury after he was ejected from one boat and struck by another.

    The man, who was in and out of consciousness after being struck, was transported to the Harbormaster’s Winter Island Road location about 7:30 p.m. to be treated by first responders.

    A med flight helicopter was requested to transport the injured man from Salem Willows Park to a hospital. However, the Harbormaster official didn’t disclose whether the victim was subsequently relocated.

    It’s unclear whether the man was a passenger or the operator of the boat. A Harbormaster’s Office official also didn’t disclose how the man was ejected from the boat or the size of the boat.

    In May, 65-year-old Gloucester resident John Masiz died while boating through Salem Harbor.

    The fatality occurred within Salem Sound, where a boat was reported to be crashed on the rocks off Misery Island just after 5 p.m. on a Saturday. A multi-agency search located Masiz’s body separate from the boat, several hours later, at 10:15 p.m., officials said.

    The Essex County District Attorney’s Office said in May the incident was under investigation pending autopsy results from the state medical examiner’s office.

    Salem Harbor is a mixture of commercial and recreational vessels with more than 1,600 permitted recreational boats in Salem waters, according to the Harbormaster’s website.

    Col. John E. Mawn Jr., superintendent of Massachusetts State Police, said a “sobriety checkpoint” will be implemented on a public way in Essex County this weekend.

    The purpose is to further educate drivers and strengthen the public’s awareness of the need for detecting and removing those motorists who operate under the influence of alcohol and, or, drugs from the roadways.

    It will be operated during varied hours Saturday into Sunday. The selection of vehicles will not be arbitrary, safety will be assured, and any inconveniences to motorists will be minimized with advance notice to reduce fear and anxiety, Mawn said in a release.

    The checkpoint is made possible through a grant provided by the Office of Grants and Research of the state Executive Office of Public Safety and Security.
