Message From Our

 Executive Director
   
Whether you are a WBA member or not, our organization is here to ensure that, as a business owner, you are treated fairly by our city government agencies.
  
If any member would like to schedule a visit from me to discuss any concerns you may have, please call the office.
  

I believe there is no other organization in Woburn or the surrounding area that dedicates the time and interest in our business community than the Woburn Business Association.

 

In closing, I would like to wish all members and their families a happy and safe summer season.

 

 Michael Meaney

Executive Director

The Crowne Plaza was the venue for a "think tank" type of breakfast meeting held recently regarding the current and future status of transportation issues in Woburn.
 
Among the topics discussed were the under-utilization of the Anderson Regional Transportation Center; the lack of adequate parking for commuters; and the New Boston Street Bridge connecting Woburn and Wilmington.
