Deadham Becomes Dedham In Waltham

The MassDOT sign has been fixed.

Last week, Patch  near the Winter Street bridge in Waltham that incorrectly spelled Dedham wrong. It read "Deadham." Now, however, that has been fixed.

State Department of Transportation Spokesman Richard Nangle told Patch a subcontractor made the spelling mistake, but it was fixed as soon as workers noticed it. See the proof in the photo box to the right.
