Selectman says roundabout and sidewalk plans are being drawn; may seek DOT 10-Year Plan inclusion
Summary
Selectman Harry Juergens told the board he is designing a roundabout near the old town offices to accompany sidewalk projects and suggested it could be proposed for the DOT 10-Year Plan after recent traffic incidents near the railroad crossing.
Selectman Harry Juergens said he is designing a roundabout near the old town offices as part of sidewalk projects and that the proposal could be considered for the state Department of Transportation’s 10-Year Plan.
Juergens cited recent vehicle accidents — including one that disabled railroad crossing lights — as part of the rationale for the design work. He said plans are being drawn but provided no timeline for submitting the project to the DOT or for construction. The minutes do not record a formal motion or vote on pursuing inclusion on the DOT plan.
The item remains in the planning stage; further engineering work and formal submission would be required before any state-level consideration.
