CCBA Camp bikers at intersection of Mascoma/High/Mechanic and the MRG
Thursday’s Lebanon News had info on the NH Dept of Transportation Ten Year Plan for Lebanon – at least two plans will have an impact on the MRG:
*One plan concerns the proposed Rotary/Roundabout at the intersection of Mechanic/Mascoma/High Street and the MRG – a currently complicated and potentially dangerous intersection.
*Another concerns the extension of the MRG from the current terminus at Glen Road, across two railroad bridges, and into downtown West Lebanon and the Connecticut River.
