Short explanation of the story and how it developed:

This breaking news article is the result of reporter Suzanne Rent working her beat. She had been meticulously reporting on the Dartmouth Cove issue, and so had developed both deep knowledge and good sources, such that when Atlantic Road Construction blocked public access to the waterfront trail, she was able to quickly get to the site and interview outraged citizens and politicians.

Resources of the newsroom (money and time) available to complete the story:
