Traffic Commission · Meeting of July 28, 2026

FRAMINGHAM — The Traffic Commission approved a 24-foot curb cut at 4 Hancock Lane. Commissioners voted 5-0 on a roll call after a public hearing in which no one objected, and owner Abdul Noor submitted neighbor letters of no objection. Residents of the Arthur Street area said a petition filed Sept. 16 had produced no action after 10 months, and a Jody Road resident asked about two pending petitions.

School Department representative Lincoln Lynch requested a crosswalk at 185 Fountain Street for bus drivers, and Kevin McGrath raised speed limits on Fountain Street and Dudley Road, where the limit is 40 mph. A City Council order on Winter Street speeds, Order 2026-078, will be taken up in August.
