About the Committee

At its April 26, 2006 meeting, the Board of Selectmen dissolved the former Traffic Safety Advisory Committee and directed the Town Administrator to establish an administrative work group to address traffic safety related issues. Examples of matters that come before the group are administrative, non-policy related items such as: installation, placement or removal of yellow lines which delineate no parking areas, additions or removals of various types of street signs, identification of areas where a curb cut for handicap access is needed or where brush or shrubs might need to be removed or cut back. From time to time the work group provides recommendations to the Board of Selectmen through the Town Manager regarding items that would necessitate board action, such as stop signs, parking regulation changes, one-way street changes, addition or deletion of parking spaces, comments on parking or traffic-related reports or studies.
