12, 2021, MassDOT announced that the highway's exits will be renumbered starting on March 17. Exit list Suffixed routes Route 146A Route 146A in Massachusetts, United States, is a north to south route which connects Route 122 in Uxbridge, and Rhode Island Route 146A in North Smithfield. There are two connector entrances to Route 146, along Route 146A. These are Exit 1, which connects Route 146 directly to Route 146A, and Exit 2, the Chockalog Road exit in Uxbridge. This highway was renamed by the Massachusetts General Court in 2004 as the Lydia Taft Highway, after America's first woman voter, Lydia Chapin Taft, a colonial woman from Uxbridge. Lydia Chapin Taft's historic vote and her role in the history of Women's suffrage is recognized by the Massachusetts legislature since 2004, which named Route 146A from Uxbridge to the Rhode Island border in her honor. Route 146A is completely within the town limits of Uxbridge. In colonial times, this route had the name of "the Great Road", and later "the Quaker Highway", after Quakers from Smithfield, Rhode Island, settled here. There are a number of historic sites along this road including the Friends Meetinghouse, which is on the National Historic Register. The Moses Farnum House, and the Ironstone Mill Housing and Cellar Hole are two other sites along this road. Route 98 also connects with Route 146A, near its midpoint, and has significant historic sites of the original Quaker village known as Quaker City, and Aldrich Village, which are also on the National Historic Register. Just beyond the northern terminus of Route 146A and continuing north on Route 122 is a famous historical house known as Elmshade, a home and gathering place of the influential Taft family in America. Part of what is now Route 146A was the original Route 146 before a new limited access highway was constructed from the Rhode Island line to Worcester, between 1981 and 1984. This project involved moving a former almshouse cemetery and led to archeological findings on mortuary practices following that excavation. The Second Great Awakening changed local mortuary practices for the poor. Major intersections References External links Mass.
