2013 Major Bottleneck In-Depth Analysis Study

The major bottleneck that will be analyzed in the 2013 Bottleneck Study is the Central Street-Harrison Boulevard corridor from Canton Street (Route 27) in Stoughton to Route 28 in Avon. Our Fact Sheet explains the project in detail, and our Project Press Release, also available in Spanish and Portguese, announces the start of the project.

2011 Major Bottleneck In-Depth Analysis and Action Plan

The 2011 Major Bottleneck In-Depth Analysis and Action Plan is analyzing, quantifying, and studying in-depth the three major bottlenecks (town center, arterial, and limited access highway & interchange) identified in the 2010 Major Bottleneck Identification Study. Old Colony Planning Council is preparing a final plan, which will include an implementation program outlining how and when recommendations of the plan will be implemented and identify potential funding sources. A short-range plan will be recommended for immediate implementation, and a long-range plan will serve as the basis for including projects in the region's Transportation Improvement Programs, and Regional Transportation Plans, and beyond.

The three major bottlenecks that are being analyzed in the 2011 Major Bottleneck In-Depth Analysis and Action Plan include:

A survey was developed and made available online or in paper form, in order to provide a more robust public participation component.

Bottleneck Survey

Please participate in our online survey! We would like to know about your experiences with vehicle congestion at the major bottlenecks in the region. Answers to this brief survey will help shape the planning process.
