Hampton Hotel

Green performed a traffic impact & access study for a proposed 106-room hotel with a small accessory building, located within the major office park area served by Route 9 and I-495 in Westborough, MA.

The study included collecting a series of traffic data, preparing traffic forecasts, evaluating the existing traffic signals at the site as well as at the Route 9 off-ramps, and providing input to internal pedestrian circulation, parking layout plan, and goods delivery access.

The access plan, which needed both local and MassDOT approvals, required modifications to the traffic signal serving the project site. The most significant part of the proposed improvements to the site access included adding crosswalks and pedestrian signals to allow for safe pedestrian crossings and to provide pedestrian connectivity between the proposed site and surrounding businesses.
