As part of the Town’s ongoing efforts to improve the conditions at the intersection of Crowell Road and Route 28, a Public Forum has been scheduled to “kickoff” the design process for potential improvements to the Crowell Road / Rte. 28 / Depot Road/ Queen Anne Road intersection on January 7, 2010 at 7:00 PM in the Large Conference Room of the Chatham Community Center.. The goal of this meeting is to provide the first of several planned opportunities for interested stakeholders and citizens to provide input into the development of engineered
alternative concepts to put forward to the Massachusetts Department of Transportation (MassDOT).
The Town of Chatham has recently contracted with Fay, Spofford and Thorndike or “FST” to provide traffic design services to start an engineering level analysis of potential project alternatives. The final deliverable for this contract will be a Project Initiation Form or PIF to be submitted to the State to achieve the next milestone in the planning process for projects on State highways.
This “charrette” style meeting will feature a brief overview of the history and background of the project, an overview of the MHD design process, with the bulk of the meeting being devoted to the exchange of ideas in a “hands on” fashion facilitated by FST. Representatives from FST and the Town of Chatham will be in attendance to respond to any questions or comments. The information gathered at this meeting will be incorporated into the development of potential alternatives to be considered by stakeholders and citizens at a subsequent public meeting in early winter of 2010.
Project background information is available for review and download on the Town’s website under Town Projects:
