Main Street is 25, William Clarke Drive is 35.

Speaking of speed limits, correct me if I'm wrong but isn't it posted that
meaMain Street to be 35 only?

I'm sure the DOT has the final say about the posted speed, and I'd be
very surprised if they would consider 25, given that it is 35 on the rest
of WCD, and becomes 40 outbound to Gorham just past Conant Street. Are you
proposing 25 for all of WCD?
If blocking an intersection is a recurring problem at an intersection, I
suppose we could make that signage request to Eric.

When the Intersections of WCD with Saco Street, New Gorham Road and the
western end of Main Street are completed, with WCD becoming 2 Lanes , East
and West bound, ( Is that correct ? ), what will the Speed Limit be posted
as for WCD ?
My concern is that 35MPH, the current Speed Limit, will be too fast with
the two Thru Lanes in both directions, which could, possibly lead to more
accidents , and Pedestrians being injured or fatally injured. Perhaps, 25
MPH could be the new Speed Limit when the upgrade work is completed.
Another concern is seeing angry drivers west bound,, on WCD last night
at the Spring Street Intersection, due to drivers coming downhill, on
Spring, across WCD, and not paying attention to the changing traffic
signals resulting in all 4 lanes of WCD being blocked, with the Spring
Street lane to Main Street backed up across WCD.
Perhaps a " DO NOT BLOCK INTERSECTION " SIGN/S should be installed on
the South side of Spring Street. That has worked very well at the WCD
westbound lanes at the Mechanic Street Intersection.
