Complete Streets Committee · Meeting of July 17, 2026
Groton's Complete Streets Committee designated member Brian Callahan as its liaison to a new town working group on the Main Street corridor study. The move follows a memo from the town manager setting the working group's organizational meeting for July 27, 2026. Members also approved June 26 minutes 5-0 by roll call, with Kristen von Campe, Peter Cunningham, Row, Takashi Tada and Callahan voting aye; member Stephen Legge's votes went uncounted after persistent audio problems.
Callahan told the committee a draft 180-page corridor study found "speed is not an issue on Main Street," with 85th-percentile speeds at or below the 35 mph limit. Cunningham raised a resident petition seeking bump-outs at the Route 40 and Broad Meadow intersection following past accidents. Callahan reported he will put the Lovers Lane and Sandy Pond sidewalk project out to bid after his vacation, with construction hoped for this fall.
