how is the fox hollow reconstruction project going in Moultonboro

Going still no Asphalt down last I drove by though. The road has been widened and the driveway on the side of the street redirected. Should be much better when complete, but still need to use caution there as turning vehicles could still get rear ended, until people get used to moving to the right lane when heading toward Meredith. I did not look for any sign changes in that area. I'll have to look when I drive by tonight or tomorrow.

Reading papers over the years.
I think the town paid a few hundred thousand dollars for studies.
Then the state took over the project and redesigned what the town had done.
Doesn't seem to accomplish much other then a left turn lane heading west.
Nothing for the folks coming out of Fox Hollow turning left.
Speed limit is 45 MPH and cars coming from east can be an issue for those leaving Fox Hollow heading west.

Those telephone poles on side of road look a tad menacing. They are set back some.

I thought they were putting in stop lights

They put a permanent white line over the new binder coat of asphalt, so I think they are done for the year.

They paved the widened area (to pass the cars taking a left into Fox Hollow from "downtown" where many have been hit) and improved sight lines overall.

thanks for the update. There were two big problems as one exited fox hollow. First the dip in the road which they planned to level out and the second the ridge and trees as one exited on the left. Don't know if they fixed either one.
