PITTSFIELD- SIGNAL & INTERSECTION IMPROVEMENTS AT ROUTE 7 (NORTH STREET) AND ROUTE 9 (PARK SQUARE)

The purpose of this project is to improve traffic and safety at the three intersections surrounding Park Square. These intersections currently experience unacceptable levels of peak period congestion and delay, a high number of traffic accidents, and long queues of stopped vehicles under existing peak demand conditions during weekday commuting periods. The Park Square area is also included in the city's streetscape project. As a part of this project, a variety of pavement and sidewalk treatments will be implemented at the Park Square location.
