Topics getting the most attention in Bedford public meetings, ranked by how frequently they come up.
Request for no-engine-braking restriction on Route 101
A resident asked for a 'no engine braking' restriction on Route 101 eastbound near Kahliko Lane, but the state DOT doesn't restrict approved safety equipment, noise usually comes from illegal exhaust modifications, and Route 101 is state-maintained.
Apple Leaf Drive truck turnaround
DPW wants an easement on the Keller property so plow and utility trucks can turn around at the end of Apple Leaf Drive — a condition that's existed since the 1960s. Talks continue before the May 4 hearing.
