Proposed 3-way stop at Bog Road intersection

A topic was set for public hearing at the May 10 City Council meeting to convert the intersection of Bog Road, Carter Hill Road, Horse Hill Road, and River Road from a 2-way stop to a 4-way stop. Currently, there is no stop required at Bog Road and Horse Hill Road.

The proposal calls for placing a stop sign at Bog Road and at the end of the bridge on Horse Hill Road. City staff is recommending this change to improve safety for vehicles and pedestrians. However, the average number of vehicles, pedestrians, and bicycles per hour approaching the intersection falls short of the minimum criteria to warrant a 4-way stop.

It would be very helpful to hear your opinions on this potential change. You can send your thoughts to cityclerk@concordnh.gov. More information is available in the report here.
