Parking and construction fuel frustration in New Bedford | Exclusive

NEW BEDFORD — Downtown New Bedford business owners say continued construction, detours and parking difficulties are making it harder to attract customers and keep their businesses profitable. For some, the closure of longtime restaurant Whaler’s Tavern has sharpened concerns about their own future. “It was difficult for locals to get to us. Never mind someone who is a tourist who’s not familiar,” said Kristen Brito. She worked at the tavern for nearly a decade before receiving the news in a text that they would be closing. “We had our customers, we had our regulars. We had our people that are feeling really sad about this,” she said. More: New Bedford Whaling Museum shares expansion plans for summer 2027 Brito believes construction for the New Bedford Whaling Museum expansion on North Water Street contributed significantly to the tavern’s difficulties. She said it wasn’t its sole cause, but the street was closed for 10 weeks during peak tourist season, making the restaurant harder to reach for both regular customers and visitors. “Construction killed the foot traffic and the road traffic,” she said. Visitors coming from the Whaling Museum also faced longer walks around closures, she said, creating a particular challenge for older

Acushnet’s St. Gelais flips seat from Dem to Rep

Last week’s election results took a little bit longer to count than usual. The Neighb News had to go to print with some races and ballot questions still not decided. Now, 99% of the votes are in. Domestic mailed-in ballots postmarked by 11/3 had to be in by 11/6. Ballots mailed from outside the US have until 11/13 to arrive and still be counted. So counting cannot be finished until after then. The results need to be certified by 11/18.

Taunton dad had too many model trains. So he opened a biz for all ages

Taunton resident Joseph Moreton had a problem: he had too many model trains. "We have a really small home" and have "four kiddos," his wife Gabrielle Moreton said. "He would always bring out the trains with the kids, and you would always have to take them and put them away because there's no space at all." "One day he's like, you know what? I need a space so we can keep them out all the time," she said. "Then he's like, even better yet, I would love for the public to come and enjoy it as well." That idea became Mass Model Railroad Club at 52 Main St. in downtown Taunton . The business houses Joseph's collection of model trains for the public to drive, and also allows people to bring their own trains in to drive on the tracks inside the facility. Joseph said that the business appeals to anyone "from 5 years old up until death, really." Here's what we know. Who is the new Miss Taunton? Meet Miss Taunton and Miss Taunton's Teen 2027.
