Six parking spaces would be removed as part of the bridge project near the West Concord MBTA station, allowing the project to avoid moving utilities and other infrastructure. The committee also reviewed an early design for a Walden Street sidewalk extension between Magnolia Street and Brister’s Hill Road, with concerns about mature trees, bicycle access, and the project’s December 31, 2026 grant deadline. A possible new smaller-shuttle bus service serving Concord and nearby communities remains under development, with a committee discussion proposed for July 7.
