Oxford -The residents have the opportunity to ward off themselves in the Maine Ministry of Transport for a traffic light at the intersection of the Main and Oxford streets during an online forum by e -mail or telephone from February 28th to March 7th.
When Mdot presented the Select Board plan of Paris in September 2024, the city officials commented on the fact that the traffic in the Oxford Street would secure that crossed Route 117 in this city. At this meeting, the MDOT project manager Brian Keezer said that adding a light at an intersection would probably not increase traffic.
The Oxford Board of Selectmen was only able to address the proposal with an MDOT representative on January 16 when the regional planner Matt Drost took part in a meeting at the invitation of the city administrator Adam Garland.
There, the officers also informed the resistance to the plan, although Drost said that the intersection was shown as a potential highly confessional body on the basis of the number of crashes in recent years.
Selectmen suggested to publish signs that the road is not a passage could be a better alternative.
Drost said that could be done, but it would be to install them to Paris and Oxford. This, he added, would make GPS apps such as Waze, Siri and Google on the way to straighten the Oxford Street and possibly shorten the terraces outside the city that take the links around Route 26.
The public can comment on the plan during the virtual hearing of MDOT. The website can be displayed at bit.ly/Mainedot meters.
People can also send their comments directly to Mdot project manager Mackenzie Hersbergen at mackenzie.a.kersbergen@maine.gov by email or 207-215-3820.
A note for Maine Ministry of Transport announces that on February 28th to March 7th you ask public comments to install a traffic light at the intersection of Oxford and Main Street in Oxford.
