Board of Selectmen
FROM: Peter M. Chalpin, Chairm- SUBJECT: Concord Avenue
Traffic Safety Committee ( Traffic - Mrs, Bethony
and Mrs . Flynn
At its meeting of 2/17/82 , the Traffic Safety Committee
discussed the concerns outlined in two letters from residents
of Concord Avenue, the first from Mrs. Bethony at #279 , and
the second from Mrs. Flynn at #310. Central to their concerns
is the Concord Avenue/Scott Road/Blossom Street intersection,
the areas of Concord Avenue immediately abutting the intersec-
tion and the limited sight distances which exist there.
Both letters request some sort of warning devices be
installed to alert drivers of these limitations. After lengthy
discussion, the Committee voted to recommend installing two
signs on Concord Avenue with the following wording: CAUTION -
VEHICLES SLOWING AND TURNING AHEAD. These signs would have
white letters on a red background.
Those in attendance:
Peter M. Chalpin
