Get ready for more construction in Westfield. Plans to renovate and expand the area right off exit three on the Mass Pike are going full speed ahead after city councilors vote on a ten million dollar bond.

The City Council approved a 10 million dollar bond that will change the way some Westfield roads look right off the Pike. The big bond is all for Target.

The box store is looking to build a distribution center right on Falcon Drive, and councilor Dan Knapik is all for it.

"If we don't do this tonight, ten or 15 years down the line, we'll get the same traffic but there's no state money hinged on it," he says.

Target has promised it'll build in Westfield if there's a way to get here. Right now, it's no easy task for any 18 wheelers going through exit 3.

Thousands of big rigs come through each day and when they're turning right, lanes can fit only one at a time. That's why Councilor Dan Knapik wants to strike now. Since a deal with Target is on the table, the state will pitch in to help, to the tune of 5 million dollars

"If you don't have a project designed, you won't be in line to get any federal money that might come down," Knapik says.

But there's some that don't want any money to come down. Not from the city, state or Target.

"I didn't buy a home in the country to stare at a 45 foot wall," says resident Guy D'Angelo.

D'Angelo lives on North Road. His new neighbor will be the Target Distribution Center right across the street.

"6 to 7 thousand trucks a day down two lane country roads is just going to destroy neighborhoods," D'Angelo says.

But Knapik argues, the traffic will be there regardless. But now they can put the improvement money on someone else's tab.

"If traffic volumes on 10 and 202 reach a certain point we'd have to make those improvements and it would be on our own dime," Knapik says.

Right now, the engineering study can be done. That will take about a year to complete, then construction will start sometime next year.
