From: Emily Benson and David Campbell, Jackson’s representatives to the North Country Council’s Transportation Advisory Council

North Country Council’s Traffic Calming Pop-up Demonstration at Black Mt Road and Main Street has been completed and the intersection has been returned to its normal configuration. Many thanks to Jackson residents, businesses and visitors who volunteered, tested and shared their thoughts during the week-long demonstration. The project was a “test run” for the possible implementation of a permanent redesign of the intersection of Main Street & Black Mountain Road. The goal was to slow speeds, increase pedestrian safety, and create community greenspace by reclaiming roadway lanes. A final step in this project is to collect feedback on the demonstration. Please complete this survey to share your input. North Country Council will work to process the traffic count data and responses from the Survey and use those to write a summary report for the Town of Jackson. This report can be used to supplement Capital Improvement Plan project proposals, a Master Plan Update, or referenced when it comes time to apply for project funding.
