Cheshire Considers Making Flaherty One-Way; Police Chief Update

By Sabrina DammsiBerkshires Staff
CHESHIRE, Mass. — Town officials are considering making Flaherty Road one way following requests from street residents. 
 
The road is a short narrow residential street that connects the start of Wells Road and the end of East Main Street. 
 
There are a total of five residents on the street and two have come forward with the request claiming that their neighbors all agree to the change, Corey McGrath, public works director, told the Select Board last week. 
 
The residents explained that a one-way street would make the area safer because the bridge on Windsor Road restricts visibility. 
 
The change would make the street a one-way heading towards Wells Road, McGrath said. 
 
He said he has not talked to all of the residents personally but wanted to start the process of considering it as long as there is an understanding that plowing the street would still be done both ways. 
 
"It is a bus route. When there's a car on it, it's a mess," McGrath said.
