Summary

Town staff said Route 1 East (formerly TA Set‑Aside Boston Post Road East) received a preliminary layout from consultants, has begun property owner outreach and that the town budget includes additional funds pending public hearing and approvals.

The TA Set‑Aside project — to be renamed Route 1 East to reduce confusion between two Boston Post Road East projects — has a preliminary layout from BL Companies and staff have begun contacting property owners and conducting site walks to get feedback, Peter Gillespie reported.

Gillespie told commissioners that the town has additional funds in its budget for sidewalks, "subject to public hearing and final approvals," and that staff will continue outreach and design refinement. No final design or contract awards were made at the April 9 meeting.
