Public Service Announcements (“PSAs”)
WCAT, working with the town, has begun producing PSAs/News segments related to important town events and happenings to further inform residents of important information. Recent PSAs include details on the town’s water main flushing, detours in place during work on Montrose Avenue, commuter rail track work, and detours on Salem Street. These segments are broadcast as well as uploaded to YouTube and posted to Facebook.
