by | Dec 20, 2023 | Featured: Features, Hopkinton Today

Good morning, Hopkinton! Welcome to the daily update we call Hopkinton Today — a quick recap of yesterday’s news, highlights of what’s on tap, and a photo of the day.

As the region recovers from Monday’s torrential storm, the town announced that a major water main broke Tuesday morning, and it was expected to cause discoloration throughout town.
