The Berkshire Regional Planning Commission wants to know about your dirt road problems.
Berkshire County residents and those who drive its many unpaved roads are being asked to fill out a survey, in the form of a map, with any issues they notice while traveling. The BRPC is encouraging residents to specify problems on the map in an effort to gather details for possible grant proposals the group could file on behalf of cities and towns in the future.
Alison Dixon, who is spearheading the project for the BRPC, said that the survey map will inform vulnerability assessment maps that the BRPC provides to all its towns showing where key problem areas for their Departments of Public Works and grant writers to focus on.
