FRAMINGHAM – Waterfronts at all three city beaches are closed, according to Framingham Parks and Recreation. The sand area will be open for sunbathing when staff is present. Meanwhile, the waterfronts at both Learned Pond and Lake Waushakum in Framingham are closed due to elevated levels of E.coli bacteria. The water will be retested and the waterfronts will open once the bacteria is back within acceptable limits. Other bodies of water in Hopkinton are operated by the state and are currently open, including Hopkinton State Park.
