The Town is pursuing pedestrian safety improvements along the Chestnut Street corridor in response to a pedestrian fatality at the intersection of Chestnut Street and Chestnut Terrace on December 31, 2019. This survey is designed to complement the virtual public listening session scheduled for Tuesday, March 30 at 7:00 pm, and can be taken before or after the meeting.
To register for the public listening session, visit: tinyurl.com/TACChestnutStThere are four questions in this survey, and it should take less than five minutes to complete. The survey presents a range of short-term, medium-term, and long-term concepts for improving safety in this area. The Town is soliciting feedback from the community on these concepts. Community comments and suggestions will inform the proposals that the Transportation Advisory Committee (TAC) develops and submits to the Select Board for review and approval.
The goal is to develop concepts that address the following:
- Improve pedestrian safety
- Improve bicycle safety
- Reduce vehicle speeds through the corridor
The Department of Planning and Community Development (DPCD) and TAC expect to present final recommendations to the Select Board in May or June, with a goal of implementing short-term improvements as soon as possible.
Please complete this survey by April 14, 2021.
