The Transportation Safety Working Group officially disbanded after the Local Roads Safety Plan was formally adopted by the Select Board. For questions about the work completed by the TSWG, please contact the Engineering Department.
About the Working Group
Following a series of local motor vehicle crashes in 2022, some resulting in fatalities, the Select Board created a Transportation Safety Working Group (TSWG) to identify the causes(s) of these accidents and to develop a comprehensive Local Road Safety Plan (LRSP) that could be used as a framework for prioritizing safety for all road users.
Funded through a federal grant for more than $200,000 from the United States Department of Transportation, the LRSP will be created with the support of the consultant firm, Bowman, who will assist in analyzing data, identifying potential risk factors at past crash locations, supporting public outreach and engagement activities, and helping the Town to proactively develop a toolkit for future projects that are reflective of the Select Board's commitment to safety.
