Another bill on the Transportation Committee’s agenda for August 29 would pay homage to celebrate Boston Celtics teammates and NBA champions, Bob Cousy and the late Bill Russell by naming the portion of the Massachusetts Turnpike between Boston and Worcester “The Bill Russell and Bob Cousy Highway.”

“I sponsored this bill to honor the legacies of Bill Russell and Bob Cousy,” said sponsor Rep. David Linsky (D-Natick). Both, all-time great basketball players but even better people for their incredible work for our communities.”
