Blue Ribbon Dairy
There was a nice letter in the Bedford Minuteman this past week. It was talking about walking & shopping in Bedford. The main gist of the article was that Bedford was not designed friendly for walkers and that the new development going in at the Blue Ribbon Dairy site will not help. They are proposing having parking in the front, which will once again affect walking in Bedford adversely.
For those of you that don’t know, the Blue Ribbon Dairy site is located on The Great Road near the Sunoco. They are planning to put in a one-story building containing a bank and other retail establishments and yes, they would like to have parking in front of the building. The good news, from what I understand, is that the Bedford Planning Board is trying to stick to Bedford’s Comprehensive Plan and is using their influence to keep parking in the back of the building. Also they want to make sure that there is a nice green barrier.
Two more points of interest, while driving around Bedford this weekend I noticed that AvalonBay has been doing a lot of work recently. Is there any new news on that development? Secondly, it looks like there is going to be more work starting soon at the Depot Park. Does anyone know what is planned next for that site?
