Link to Enterprise Article on the Redesign of the intersection of Prospect and Foundry Streets

Please take a moment and read this article on the redesign of the intersection of Prospect and Foundry Streets here in Easton. I am very glad to hear that a warrant article for this year’s Town Meeting is being crafted and I would encourage everyone to support the article.
Prior to my delivering for Meals on Wheels, I had never had to use the crossover from Prospect to Prospect via the Foundry Street intersection. Now that I am a weekly user, I can tell you that making that crossing is largely an act of faith at certain times of the day.
