Resident urges RSU 18 to address 'horrendous' traffic at Williams Building during facilities debate
Summary
During the facilities-management discussion, a resident described daily severe traffic backups at the Williams Building, urged board members to observe drop-off and pick-up, and asked whether a prior traffic study had been followed up; officials said they would locate and share the study.
Article 9, covering facilities management ($6,186,806.75 recommended), prompted a sustained public comment about safety and congestion at the Williams Building.
Sherry described the morning and afternoon traffic conditions as "horrendous," urging board members to visit the site at peak times and asking whether a study performed a year or two earlier had been followed. The moderator and superintendent responded that they would search for the study and share it; the superintendent noted there had been a change in traffic pattern after the bus drive between the elementary and high school was opened. After the exchange the article was moved and carried.
The comment flagged routine congestion at a campus drive and a community request for clearer follow-up; no traffic-safety improvements were adopted during the meeting.
