Salisbury Beach Tourist Attraction Signs Installed October 19, 2006SALISBURY –New destination-attraction signs will be installed on Interstate 95 to promote Salisbury Beach and guide tourists to the beach area. State Senator Steven A. Baddour and Michael A. Costello secured an economic development earmark to pay for the promotional campaign. The two new signs will be erected on the northbound and southbound lanes of Interstate 95 at Exit 58. “For many years, families across New England have held the tradition of summertime trips to Salisbury Beach,” said Rep. Costello. “These signs will ensure that people continue to visit and support our beautiful beach, especially as it undergoes a rebirth.” “Tourism is central to Salisbury's economy, and I applaud the Salisbury Chamber of Commerce's hard work in shepherding this project,” said Sen. Baddour. “I also want to thank MassHighway for partnering with us on this project to draw tourists to the beach resort area.” “With all the changes at Salisbury Beach, the one constant is the ocean so we wanted to promote the beach,” said Maria Miles, president of the Salisbury Chamber of Commerce. “This would not have been possible without the help of Representative Costello and Senator Baddour.” Sen. Baddour and Rep. Costello wanted to thank John Haydyn of MassHighway for helping to coordinate the installation of the signs. |
