3 Harding Street Intersection Options

Posted on December 23, 2024 | Comments Off on 3 Harding Street Intersection Options

VHB has provided the town its analysis of the suggested options for the three Harding Street intersections that are to be redone as part of the Medfield State Hospital site redevelopment:

At Hospital Road – 3 options.

At West Street – 2 options.

At North Street – 3 options.

These will be discussed at the Select Board meeting on January 7 and voted on January 21.

My choices are, for the combined reasons of safety and traffic flow:

3 way stop at Harding and Hospital – allows Hospital traffic to turn left in AM.

West Street stop.

Roundabout at North Street – safety and traffic flow justify the added cost.

Colleen Sullivan records Memorial Day

Posted on May 28, 2024 | 1 comment

Colleen shared with me last night this photo she orchestrated yesterday of the Medfield Police Department and the Select Board in Baxter Park after the ceremony –

At the time I was both amused and impressed enough to document the photographer at work taking that photo –

Earlier in the week I had witnessed Colleen having to do even more arranging of her subjects to get all the gold star families into the frame for a photo in a tight space with the new plaque at the Legion. Good photos do not just randomly happen, they require a good photographer being in charge.

I saw that Colleen took many photos recording Medfield’s Memorial Day, and once she processes them they will appear here https://patch.com/massachusetts/medfield
