Tim Kaiser will be in to discuss plan to use Chapter 90 funds to design roundabout as traffic improvement at Main Street and Water Street. This project was the highest scoring project in our Complete Streets plan and will be potentially eligible for $400,000 of funding through that state program next year (assuming past practices continue.) The program does not pay for design; thus, to expedite this, we are undertaking the design ourselves. The engineer is the same firm that designed the recently completed roundabout in Adams.
The estimated cost of design is $125,100.
I've attached a simple schematic that the engineer produced to test concept feasibility. Gives an initial sense of location and scale.
