RECORD OF MEETING
June 2, 2011
PRESENT:
R. Ferguson, TCC
J. Kempton, TCC
S. Mentzer, TCC
J. Zingarelli, Town of Holden DPW
- May Record of Meeting Approved (3-0)
- CMRPC TAM Report Review and Discussion
TCC concludes that CMRPC’s report is a good, comprehensive study and recommends no changes be made. CMRPC will be asked to finalize the report and present to an upcoming joint meeting with the Planning Board. TCC also discussed the potential traffic signal at Main Street at Boyden Road which may create the opportunity to modify access to and from the Holden Plaza. TCC would also like CMRPC to calculate the accident rate for the intersection of Main Street with Route 31.
- Review of Main Street/Princeton Street Intersections and others
TCC reviewed the list compiled by Don Lawton and assigned priority to those that require attention. TCC used a rating system of 1-4 stars, with 4 stars having the highest priority, meaning intersections that could be addressed soon and for little cost. The intersection of Bullard and Harris remains at the top of the list.
- Stop Sign Request for Greenwood Parkway at Lovell Road
TCC members had an opportunity to visit the intersection and concurred that a stop sign is not recommended at this location.
- TCC is looking for persons interested in serving on this committee. There may be one or two interested candidates.
- Traffic Systems, Inc. has been contacted for a quote to move and modify the traffic signals facing Main Street westbound at the public safety building.
- Next Meeting: Thursday, August 25, 7:00 pm.
- Adjournment: TCC adjourned at 8:45 pm.
