Select Board to discuss posted roads at Feb. 22 Emergency Meeting

‘Tis the season. The Select Board will meet tonight to consider the posting of roads against heavy loads. (The weight limit is 23,000 pounds.)

It appears the board will discuss two options. They would authorize the town manager and public works director to confer as needed over some 40 roads–paved and gravel–and decide which to post, when.
