Have you noticed? Thank you Active Transportation Committee!

Have you noticed the new asphalt signs in the corner to slow traffic in our corner hub? This is the result of years of advocacy by our Active Transportation Committee led by Nancy Grant and supported by many local residents. One aspect of working for a safer and more vibrant Woodfords Corner means actually trying to slow the traffic along Forest Ave. Woodfords Corner is the second busiest intersection in the state and a state highway with thousands of cars coming through every day. Friends of Woodfords Corner would like them to slow down so that pedestrians and bicyclists feel safe here too. And if they slow down, they might even stop and shop and discover Woodfords Corner as a fun and growing neighborhood downtown. Thank you to Nancy and the team and our supporters at the Maine Department of Transportation. Advocacy works!
