The city of Newburyport, Mass., formally introduced parklets to help restaurants continuing to recover from the pandemic.
Like many small cities, Newburyport is trying to attract customers back after government-mandated shutdowns in order to slow the spread of the coronavirus in 2020.
With vaccination rates up and reported positive cases of COVID-19 down, capacity limits have been lifted in Maine and New Hampshire.
Limits in Massachusetts are scheduled to increase on May 29, but Gov. Charlie Baker is scheduled to make an announcement during the coming week following the CDC s updated guidance that allows vaccinated individuals to stop wearing masks indoors and out.
