The only issue would be coming down Rte. 11 and turning on to Rte. 3, or coming down Rte. 3 and going around the rotary to cross the bridge, and that would only be an issue with their Ladder Tower. Obviously, going straight down Rte. 11 over the bridge is a non-issue, as is going over the bridge and turning right on to Rte 3. I am sure the department has already figured this out as well as pre-planned how they would navigate during construction. As of today, when you come over the bridge you have to detour the right onto Rte. 3 by going passed the circle, onto the start of Rte. 11, and hanging a hard right onto Rte. 3. I would assume the Laconia Fire Dept. already knows if they can make the detour or if they will just go over the bridge I hope they have taken into account on how snow will be plowed in this area. The windrows will make that intersection/rotary smaller and tighter than it is right now. If the ladder truck has a tight squeeze now, just wait until the snow comes. My guess is that this has been discussed and there shouldn't be an issue for Laconia or mutual aid city/towns that respond.
