Скачать или смотреть Hungry for a Road Diet • With Jeff

People can’t drive. Or they can’t drive without supervision and oversight. To that end, a committee pushed for a study in Hingham, MA to ascertain whether folks on Summer Street should be limited to one lane or two when making the excursion to or from Hull and Hingham.

In today’s episode, I took my drone and flew above the beginning section of Summer Street to see how many cars go onto that stretch of road on a lazy (non-summer, pre-Memorial Day) Sunday when the weather is cloudy.

There were a significant number of cars at 10:45AM or so. I wonder what it will be like as the weather gets nicer and more folks travel to the beach in Hull.

I plan to do more aerial investigation as the study commences. *If you need an FAA-certified drone pilot, please get in touch. See www.JeffCutlerPhoto.com for more info and to book a mission.

Back to cars and possible chaos (as I say in my voice over on the video).

There have been studies underway since 2009, but the current “Road Diet” study is beginning TODAY. That’s why this video is being posted on the heels of my BBQ episode.

If you want to get involved and find out more, go to https://www.hingham-ma.gov/795/Route-... and read the meeting minutes and the steps that led up to this study.

The lane limits begin May 21, 2018 and continues until July 31, 2018. Here’s the descriptor from the link above…

“Road Pilot Program
In conjunction with MassDOT and the Towns of Hull and Cohasset, the Town of Hingham will be moving forward with a temporary pilot program to measure in real time traffic patterns and impacts and validate computer modeling of proposed long-term safety solutions for the Summer St corridor.

Summer and Rockland Streets from east of the rotary to the intersection at George Washington Boulevard will be reduced from four lanes to two lanes, or one vehicle lane in each direction beginning on Monday morning May 21, 2018. Four lanes of traffic and left turning lanes will remain at signaled intersections. A message board about the project will go up on Summer St beginning the week of May 1, 2018

Anticipated Schedule (weather dependent)
May 20, 2018: Lane reduction test begins (one lane in each direction)
July 31, 2018: Lane reduction test ends (returns to four lanes)”
