During a recent government meeting, community concerns regarding pedestrian safety were prominently discussed, particularly focusing on the condition of crosswalks and ADA-compliant ramps in the town. Residents expressed frustration over faded crosswalk markings, specifically highlighting a critical intersection on Main Street where visibility is compromised.

One resident reported stumbling multiple times while navigating ramps that are supposed to be ADA-compliant, noting that some ramps appear poorly constructed, with raised corners and missing sections. This has raised questions about the safety and accessibility of these pathways for individuals with disabilities.

In response to these concerns, officials acknowledged that recent maintenance efforts had been made, including the repainting of several crosswalks on Main Street. However, it was noted that some areas, including the specific intersection mentioned, were overlooked and still require attention.

The discussion underscored the need for ongoing maintenance and improvements to ensure pedestrian safety and accessibility throughout the town. Officials committed to addressing the issues raised and promised to follow up with the maintenance crew to ensure that all necessary repairs and repainting are completed promptly.
