Posted Roads Information
2010

During a regular meeting on February 24th, the Board of Selectmen voted to post all of the Town Roads effective at midnight on Saturday, February 27th.  The posting will be lifted when the Road Commissioner and Board of Selectmen determine that the roads can be traveled on with full weight without causing damage.

During the period of posting, with few exceptions, any vehicle with a registered gross weight in excess of 23,000 pounds is prohibited from traveling over the Town Roads unless they are solidly frozen (temperature is below 32 degrees and there is no standing water in the cracks) or the vehicle is empty. 

As per the “Posted Roads” Ordinance - exemptions may be requested on a case by case basis and may only be approved by the Board of Selectmen at their Wednesday night meetings. 

Heating Fuel Companies are asked to make deliveries on Route 209 before driving on Town Roads to decrease any possible damage.
