Walden selectboard member urges signage study at Cabot Road and Route 15 intersection
Summary
Selectboard member Diane Cochran reported an increase in "close calls" at the Cabot Road and Route 15 intersection; Selectboard member Debbie Messier said she will contact the local state engineer to explore adding signage.
Diane Cochran told the Walden Selectboard on Aug. 11 that she has observed an increase in “close calls” at the intersection of Cabot Road and Route 15 and asked the board to consider additional traffic signage or other safety measures.
Debbie Messier responded that she will contact the local state engineer to determine whether increased signage could help. The minutes record no formal motion or vote on the matter and do not list a timetable for follow-up.
The item arose during the public-comment portion of the meeting rather than as a formal agenda item. The board did not record any traffic counts, crash data, or a formal referral to the town road foreman in the minutes; members limited the record to the report of close calls and a pledge by Messier to contact the state engineer.
