Minutes for the meeting of April 10, 1989 2 <br /> ****************************** REPORTS ************************************** <br /> 111. Planning Director <br /> a. Marrett Road CD - Sheraton Update: Traffic engineer, Richard Cook, <br /> reported BSC has done an analysis of the traffic study submitted by Vanasse <br /> Hangen with the proposal and that basically they are in agreement with the <br /> conclusions reached by Vanasse Hangen. He noted the right turn in - right <br /> turn out proposal will improve the flow of traffic in the area. He said the <br /> additional traffic being brought through the Mass. Avenue - Marrett Road <br /> intersection should be able to be accommodated with a minor change in the <br /> width of Mass. Ave. on its approach to Marrett Road. His recommendation is <br /> that the roadway be widened on the right hand side as you approach the <br /> intersection and that two lanes be established there. That and a police <br /> officer during peak periods, should improve traffic operations there. BSC's <br /> recommendation is that the Town, or the applicant for the CD rezoning, provide <br /> the necessary corrective measures until the Marrett Road improvements are <br /> completed. <br /> Mr. Cook added that BSC is preparing to go into the next design stage as soon <br /> as the overhead utility issue at the Minute Man National Park entrance can be <br /> 1 resolved. He estimated that resolution of this problem should allow the de- <br /> 1 sign work to be completed in 1989, possibly meeting the State schedule for <br /> bidding the job in the spring of 1990, with construction to begin in the sum- <br /> mer of 1990. He noted the State appears to want to move on this project as <br /> quickly as possible, and have been urging the Town and the consultant to get <br /> moving on this. <br /> Mr. Bowyer reported that Flatley Company has offered to impose the condition <br /> on themselves that a certificate of occupancy not be issued for the addition <br /> and remodeling until the contract is awarded or construction started for the <br /> Marrett Road improvements. <br /> The meeting was adjourned at 7: 52 p.m. <br /> Eleanor Klauminzer, Clerk ' <br /> J <br />
