1/ Safety: The status of Forest Road is a major concern. Committee members discussed that seasonal road closures may block ambulance access to Henniker. For residents on the 'back side of town,' full-time access is a matter of life and death during emergencies.

2/ Land Use: The committee is divided on how to use the Norton property. Should we pave it to solve the downtown parking shortage hurting local businesses, or develop it for senior housing? There is no consensus yet on which need is more urgent.

Longer-form draft.
During the Economic Development Committee meeting on March 19, two significant issues were discussed that directly impact the safety and long-term planning of Bradford. First, the committee addressed the maintenance of seasonal roads, specifically Forest Road. It was noted that because our ambulance service comes from Henniker, keeping these roads seasonal could create life-threatening delays for residents on the 'back side of town' during medical emergencies. Ensuring reliable, year-round access is a critical safety concern that requires more than just a casual discussion. Second, the committee is grappling with how to best use town-owned land, specifically the Norton property/brownfields. There is currently a lack of consensus on whether this land should be used to solve our downtown parking shortage—which local business owners say is stifling growth—or if it should be prioritized for senior housing. As these decisions move forward, residents should watch closely to see whether the town prioritizes commercial infrastructure or social services, and how they intend to resolve the urgent safety issue regarding emergency vehicle access. https://meetingwatch.org/nh/bradford/economic-development/2026-03-19/ #MeetingWatch #BradfordNH
