Board of Selectmen Minutes 4 July 6, 1998 PUBLIC MEV ENT' Ted Lewis, a member of the Board of Directors of the Briarwood Association expressed concern to the dangerous intersection that exists on Route 151 between Currier Road and Ashumet Road. Mr. Lewis commended Selectman Caffyn for her efforts to delay the Town of Falmouth's action to close Ashumet Road until the residents of the Town of Mashpee have had an opportunity to express their opinion. Mr. Lewis recommended the Board meet with officials from the Town of Falmouth to discuss the interests of Briarwood residents living in Mashpee. In addition, the Board should consider a no left turn at the intersection of Ashumet and Route 151 or to go forward with a turn at the north end of Ashumet Road where it intersects suggested Mr. Lewis. As a compromise, Ashumet going north intersecting with Route 151 going one way is a method of egress informed Mr. Lewis who also suggested that signalization be considered. Bruce Sparrow, a Falmouth resident residing on Ashumet Road strongly opposed the closing of Ashumet Road. He noted that other roads within the Town of Falmouth intersect Route 151 at a similar angle.
