Safe Streets for All Committee Formation

10/22/2026 (Roads and Sidewalks, Select Board, SS4A Committee)

The Town of Blue Hill is assembling a Steering Committee and an Advisory Committee to help guide our Safe Streets for All planning process.  This process is funded largely through a federal grant and is intended to make our streets safer for all users.  

The purpose of the Steering Committee is to review, guide, and implement the Safe Streets for All planning process and Action Plan, including soliciting, hiring, and working with consultants, engaging the community, providing Action Plan feedback, and assisting with demonstration project implementation. The Steering Committee will meet on average once a month.  

The Advisory Committee will be comprised of people representing different constituent groups who will help the Steering Committee gather input from and share pertinent information with their respective constituencies.  The Advisory Committee will meet on an as-needed basis to assist with flow of communication and feedback for the duration of the project. 

If you are interested in serving on either committee, please reach out to Alifaire Noreen, anoreen@bluehillme.gov and Amanda Woog, awoog@bluehillme.gov by 9 AM Thursday, October 29th. There will also be many opportunities to provide feedback and thoughts throughout the process, so if serving on a committee does not work for you, there will still be opportunities to participate. 

MaineDOT Work on Tenney Hill/Main St. Starting Sept. 8

09/03/2026 (Roads and Sidewalks)

A MaineDOT contractor will be working on the storm drain system in the vicinity of the intersection of Tenney Hill/Main St. and Parker Point Road (roughly between the Congregational Church and Town Hall). The work is scheduled to begin on Tuesday, September 8 and is expected to continue through the rest of the week.

Temporary No Parking Areas. The construction crews will require access to the catch basins along this segment of the road, some of which are on the curb side of marked parking spaces. MaineDOT and the contractor will be placing cones with “NO PARKING” signs where the work will take place, and will move these cones to preserve empty parking spaces as the work progresses.

Potential Single-Lane Traffic. Although the crew hopes to avoid needing to close any of the traffic lanes, this may prove to be necessary. If so, the contractor will have flaggers in place to coordinate alternating traffic in a single open lane.

Friday, May 30th – Town office closed 12:00pm to 1:00pm for training. On-line services available:
