Laura Hanson, Traffic Engineer of the N’ton DPW, met with twenty Leeds residents, mainly from Yankee Hill, to discuss creative measures for calming traffic. Trouble spots in the area caused by fast cornering, absence of crosswalks and lack of signage were identified. Laura gathered feedback on possible uses of fees set aside by the developer of the Beaver Brook / Chestnut Ave Extension project to address traffic
impacts generated by the future residents of the development. The DPW staff will meet in April with the N”ton Transportation and Parking Commission to discuss recommended measures. A follow-up meeting
hosted by the LCA to discuss the recommendations that comefrom the T & P Commission will be scheduled. For more information contact Jim Montgomery of Grove Ave.
