- Ch DL Disposition List
No person shall open any public road for vehicular public travel
without the approval of the Commission and acceptance of the road
as a public highway by the Town Meeting. The Commission's approval
of a road shall not prevent any other legal requirement for creating
or establishing a public road, including the requirement in the Town
Ordinances and Subdivision Regulations[1] for formal acceptance by the Town Meeting, upon recommendation
of the Board of Selectmen.
A private road that has not been approved by the Commission
may not be used for public travel. Such a road may be used for private
travel, provided a conspicuous sign is posted, facing the public road
and clearly stating in bold letters that the private road is a private
way and is not open for public vehicular travel.
No person shall commence construction of any road which is then
intended to be opened, at any future time, to public travel unless
approval of the location, layout, design and construction plans therefor
have been approved by the Commission.
